haha, if that was me in the Fit i would've just smashed your door. :tup:

It also seems to be the case that the bigger the truck, the bigger the douche.

Ain't Skeered, No Fear, Piss on Chevy, #3, Size Matters - Keep it Classy, Rednecks! Polish those truck nuts.

It's the exact same thing for me here in Albuquerque, NM. We call them the "you ain't $h1t balloon" crowd. They're always there to talk smack if you have something nice or are doing something to better yourself. Then once you actually achieve something it gets even worse.

I'm curious if people act this way in other countries or if it's just the fragile egos here in the USA? :thumbsdown:

I LOVE this idea, I am going to start pulling that on the silly ricers just to see how bad it f**** with them and how mad they get. Thx for this idea Steve :icon18:

I remember my cousin told me a story about how someone tried to race him once at a stop light. He started to go to make the other guy think he was racing. When the guy floored it, my cousin stopped and continued to drive normally while the other guy kept going. The guy got pulled over for speeding right down the road. :rofl2:

Nice... Faking the race $0.5 in gas cost, seeing that guy's face as he was getting pulled over...PRICELESS :icon17:

I have had anything from a mommy mobile van to corvettes, srt8s, bmws, benz, cameros, gt500, gt, roush, and a few other respectable cars try to get me to play around. But i do drive fair +- 5mph of speed limit. When the "ricers" pull up and rev, flyby, or cut me off i just laugh. I only play around sometimes. And mainly with cars that i think that can beat me lol. Mainly so i know what i can go up against :) So far I am very pleased. No problem beating camero ss, challenger srt8, m3's, 335i, gto, c5 vette, etc. around that range of car. I have been beat a few times but nothing crazy. My buddy in his 2010 Mustang Gt Roush gets me only about a 1 car length at 130. Had a Gt500 role by and he beat me about a 1.5 car around same speed. But nice to know they dont pull to much after that 130 range pretty much dies out and we stick at that length lol.

We confiscate some of them in drug busts but a lot of them we just buy. I believe Loudon County and Fairfax County are the two richest counties in the US, and it shows. Pretty soon our cops will be chauferred around in Rolls Royces. :bowrofl:

Yeah, I spent part of my misspent youth growing up in Fairfax county, my parents still live there. Keep telling them now that they're old (in their 70's) to sell the house and move down here so it'd be easier for me to take care of them should the need arise, and oh yeah, get the hell out of VA and Fairfax co. in particular where the taxes are absolutely insane.
