I don't mind at all. Any time my 'cuda (in the truest since of the word) gets shown to others is a joy for me. I chuckle at those that combine apples and oranges when they debate whether 'cuda is a model or a slang. Anyone with a brain knows that barracudas have been called 'cudas since they were introduced in 1964. I will call a 1964 or a 1974 barracuda a cuda and defy anyone to tell me how wrong I am. The key word that I haven't seen in this thread is "package". The 'cuda option was offered as a 'package' in 1969 and it was a performance package "option" that was different from the formula 's' package. If those that disagree want to get off their lazy arses and do some research, they will learn something. While I am a 2nd gen barracuda lover, I appreciate all the barracudas that Plymouth ever made and hope that the name is not put on a Dodge.
