What a bunch of losers.
Worked my college job and pizza delivery, raking in 60-80 hr weeks. Was able to purchase a new Kia Forte5 hatch, pre Z. Dumb, fun, little car, but NEW (used w/ 2k miles). So much hate from other delivery drivers and even customers like "Why do you even need this job?" It pays me money, duh! Worrying about me, when you should be worrying about you!

What a bunch of losers is right!

I will never forget the time that a Kia got behind me on the Tail of the Dragon, The other guys behind me said he like to have lost it twice in the first couple of turns. He was trying to keep up with me and it just about cost him.

Maybe it didn't have anything to do with the car?

When I had my 350z back in the day some old lady pulled up next to me and yelled out her window, 'nice midlife crisis car.'. I was 22 at the time and about half her age by the looks of it. People love to hate.

This! I don’t get it either. I can’t drive 2 miles without some redneck kid in his pickem’ up truck tailgating at 85 MPH on the highways and wanting to race you at every stoplight.

They’ll be doing 25 MPH in a 50MPH zone, but as soon as you start to pass them, they Gun it and the race is on.

I call it little **** syndrome.

Up here in the cold north of Canada I have never rec'd. a negative reaction. Lots of kids want to pass and I do not engage as I have nothing to prove. Whenever I fuel up I always get friendly comments or waves...just lucky maybe,

I think a lot of people that just rev and pull next to you want to see it go. I love seeing vettes and challengers pull, but I'm not the type to egg someone on. Maybe they just really like your 370 and want to see it rip?

One of my biggest pet peeves is when people throw out their cigarettes while driving and hits the hood of your car.

Worse yet is when they ride half on the shoulder and give your car a rock shower.
