    We in the north east, as a result of huricane Sandy, find ourselves confronted with mile long lines at gas stations. I am of the opinion that Ferrari cars, of any year, should be allowed to cut to the front of gas lines. I would consider it ok to permit Ferrari cars to get on line with emergency vehicle. It seems like a no brainer to me. Any thoughts?

    Probably a good way to get shot in areas with lenient firearm regulations. And some wonder why Ferrari owners as labelled as ******bags outside of the Fchat bubble...

    And you wonder why people think Ferrari owners are ******tards.

    If by "no brainer" you mean "brainless," then I agree wholeheartedly.

    *EDIT* E, great minds think alike.

    Any one who has been in the service will never buck the line. Talk about your dog-pile...

    Let me just say, If you try to cut into a gas line with a Ferrari, the guy who owns a 20 year old rusted out truck will probably floor the gas pedal and give you way more grief than you ever want to experience.

    In addition, a jurry made up of those waiting in line would let him go scott free.

    Agreed! Waiting in these gas lines is really crimping my yoga time. We're under Executive Order 108 (odd/even system) here in N.J. to fill up at the stations. For example, my Lamborghini plate is NJ - FU99PCT... So, I was reduced to waiting in line with the common folk today, 11/5. Never again. I'll just send my gardener over tomorrow with a couple of gas cans. I hear the container line moves a bit quicker... :)

    Joke or not, it sounds like a viral video moment.

    I think that a 458 (especially a spider) should take precedence over your 355, however.

    What's fair is fair.

    Would people reconsider if line jumpers were limited to red / tan spiders? Maybe the winking smiley face will assist the humor challenged. Please save the "hard times" and " misery of others" holier than thou responses, I'm here in the northeast living it. O yeah, no one on the line cared that my F car had below a half a tank. By the way, I intent to sway the jury by taking each juror for a ride.

    For informational purposes, if I was on line, the F car line of course, and a 458 spider approached, I would of course defer.
