Old Does NOT mean Slow, Dammit!

I owned a BMW and don't reccommend it. I got so much shit when I had it. I couldn't wait to get rid of that thing. I'm a respectful driver and all and people would sour-grape it because I drove a nice car and flip me off. I'm sure I looked like a little bitch driving a fucking beemer wagon! I blame the wife for that one.

My Durango does a nice job of making me feel like I at least have set that clank!

 

It happens to me all the time. I got a 5 minute drive to work, and a good thing, any longer and I would definatley kill someone. People cut you off, right turns on red lights without stopping, blow through stop signs .... I'm with "ray", I hate people, they piss me off. This is why I drive a 85 Capirice wagon, I don't move or slow down for no body!!

 

Besides, people who own Mercedes own the road, the others (Bmws, Audis, etc...) just think they do!! Just ask them

Ok you got me there I know a guy with a fully restored M37. I seen a big ass tree fall on it and it popped out the windshield. Did not break it just popped it out. However that monster got itself buried and all 6000 pounds of Bronco helped him get out. He did not have a new cable fed into the pto driven winch. I admit I have a 4:1 crawl ratio with a limited slip out back and a locker up front and I was struggling to get that behemoth loose. I would love to have one but I can't find one anywhere. I do know of a old chevy military truck looks to be 40's dually with a boom on the back. Even has the old school headlights but they are red!!!!!! I want to see em light up Maximum Overdrive style.

 

LOL

During my workday I drive a $350,000 transit bus. The older ones have little to no power, but the brand new ones in the fleet are surprisingly quick off the line. Great for playing "granny pinball" with the older passengers.

You wouldn't believe how many idiots can't see a bus coming. I get cut off so many times in one shift I stopped trying to count them. Nice thing about driving a bus...anyone gets too close to me and I will win the arguement.

 

field workers will go across two lanes with nobody in them to get infront of me while they make left turns.... why would you run out in front of a huge ass buick that obviously hauling ass in a honda acord? i just switch lanes and let off the gas and down shift and still blast by them

 

You guys apparently haven't read the BMW (Lexus, Caddy , Mercedes, Infinity, Range Rover) owners manuals lately. they clearly state that operating the signal lights (especially the LED ones) creates a rift in the space time continuom about 4 feet longer then the vehicle they are attached to. It states to clear the lane you wish to occupy simply allow the light to flash twice per lane, other traffic will dissapear.

If one of you quantum tinkerers are developing a 6 V positive ground particle beam laser, I down for the purchase of one.

Granny Pinball...............ROFLMAO

 

Parents. don't raise self-absorbed little assholes... Your kids are special, but they ain't THAT special.

 

Q: What's the difference between a BMW and a porcupine?

A: The porcupine has pricks on the outside.

 

common theme here is bad drivers. no matter what they drive or where they drive. I see it here in the Chicago area daily. Used the horn twice yesterday with HORRIBLE drivers, one who waited and then pulled out in front of me - requiring a very hard stop. Then he drove slowwwwwwwwww.

I drive an 80's ragtop bmw in the summer and it still amazes me how EVERYONE ELSE around me changes their driving style/is different than when compared to when I'm driving something else. It seems everyone has to be an asshole around a BMW. Moreso the case in '99 when I got the car, but I still notice it. I suppose people are affected by a 19 yo, $4k car with a certain badge!

 

A little "road rage" story from me:

I personally HATE it when I'm on a two lane in a NON passing zone going the speed limit and someone feels the urge to pass me. Well, I did hate it.....till I wised up.

One day a guy did this to me. As he pulls out to pass me (doing 55mph) on double yellow lines, I said to hell with this and speeded up. Before he got around me I was doing 70. It took him well over 2 miles to get around me and we had even went into a turn. As he was finally pulling in front of me I could see his wife actually hitting him through his back window.

.....now I felt pretty smug about myself and was laughing.....

Till I actually thought about what if a car coming around that turn in the opposite direction would have hit them head on. What if this theoretical car would have had small children in it. I mean we were doing 70...they would have been doing 55. Add it up. It would have been catastrophic for my road rage opponent as well as for the theoretical car filled with young children.

I decided those games weren't worth it.

I just let people blow on by me now. Its much easier to live with yourself if you're not a murderer I figure.


But I still smoke people on the interstate with the Fairlane when they try and pass me. haha. At least for a little while just to give um a taste of the pipes screamin and give um a bit of a shock.

 

Yup and old Mopars are the best. Ive a pair of 30's trumperters under the hood of several daily drivers
SUV bitches sorta pee their pants when they see a 1 ton extended body 83 Dodge van not giving them an inch and the horn going. When its empty that 360 gets up and goes too.

 

i run flamethrowers on my daily - 65 chrysler. one night a moron in some Mcsuv was tailgating me so close, he didnt even notice i was flaming him & melting his front bumper, probably burning up his serpantine belt & melting every other plastic piece of shit that covered the front of his shitter. then he blows around me, only to drive up 1/8th mile & stop at a red left arrow as i passed by him about 2 seconds later.

 

I used to white knuckle the wheel of my 54 chevy 210 powerslide, i mean glide, everytime I got on the freeway. People would cut me off, give me the bird and do just about anything they could to keep me from merging in front of them. I guess I shouldn't have been doing 55 in the fast lane (j/k about the fast lane).

 

i liked my truck cause everyone just got the fuck out of my way on the freeway

 

It seems like it's been happening a lot more for me lately. I think the white paint is turning the car invisible. The thing that kills me, is when someone is stopped on the side street, they watch me heading towards them, they wait... and wait.. and when i'm getting close, they pull right out in front of me. Traffic permiting, I whip around them, and pull back into the lane right on their front bumper just to get their attention.

Anymore, I play rough with those idiots in the new suv's. They try to come over on me, or drive over the line into my lane, I hold the line, and sometimes nudge closer to them. I don't care about my paint, and I love to scare the piss out of them when they finally realize that they almost hit me. I get a lot of people wanting to race too, it's to the point that I have to sneak up on people in order to pass them. There's a lot of snail races around here, where you have two minivans riding side by side (there's a lot of 4 lane roads), neither will pass the other, while they do 10-15mph under the limit. Drives me nuts.
