one time a couple of boozers swilling beer in a pick up truck pulled up next to me in my 355 and yelled out "Ferrari man, can I give you a bl*w j*b"? Then they screeched off hysterically laughing. (I still don't really get it)
I was booted from ********** for wearing an fcar shirt while driving a gallardo after exhonerating the group from being implicated in a major accident. One lady said "he must have a small dick to buy a car like that" about another fchatter's enzo , my response was "after paying 1m for his car, I am sure he had 50k just in his pockets to go buy a 14 inch extension"
Personally, I couldn't care less about idiot show-offs. I don't have to prove a thing to anybody. I have people try to 'race' at lights all the time. Let 'em rip out on the green. I know what I COULD do, and to me the better man is the one who doesn't care what others think and shows restraint. Leave that crap for the teenagers. Jedi
Some people are just too stupid to be allowed in public. My daily driver is a +6,000 pound, 4 door, 8 foot bed, V10 engined, F250. This is NOT a small vehicle, but I use it to haul wine. On the back is a small sticker (see picture). Can you believe it.......I've actually had someone say to me, "Wow is that the new hybrid pickup?' . Image Unavailable, Please Login
Wasn't that the sticker that Glenn Beck was selling at his radio show store? Seems to me it was Beck... maybe a different host.... Great sticker - but be prepared to have your paint keyed by Prius folks who 'get it'!! Jedi
Some posts make it unclear if this thread is about or for haters. When looking into the abyss beware. The abyss looks back.
I was almost booted from ********** for asking why people would want 1000hp in their Gallardos, (the Heffner twin-turbo conversions) so don't feel bad.
What's the deal with Hybrids? My daily driver is a 3 cylinder 1 liter Geo Metro. I get 45 mpg. I have various cars/trucks for doing different things. Usually guys give me the finger (if I let them catch up with me) after I make them look stupid (not in the Geo) Actually I don't look at them. I just look straight ahead and grin.
I got called a *** one night in Walnut creek, ca, by some kid, funny thing is he was with a couple of hotties...guess he needed to show off. One of them looked at him and hit him. My supra got spit on recently by some other dip**** here in town, I quickly turned around and caught up to him to start some ****, but we were on camera at a gas station, where I knew the owners...So being the "respectful business owner in town" that I am, I just called him a ***** in front of his girlfriend-we exchanged a little **** talking...he did nothing of course...It's a small town, I'm sure I'll see him again, off camera...
funny thing is... most ricer cars w/ a few mods cost just as much (or more) than an old 308! They just don't know...
I just saw this post from a few months ago and just wanted to say: William, you're my kind of guy. Keep up the good work.
I was filling up my Ferrari (second or third time that week, I like to drive around in 1st gear just to piss off the Hybrid Drivers) and this scruffy set of gents come up, and one is talking to me about "my ride" So, I've not ever encountered outright anger before, but this was bad. Jerk #1 was leaning up against my car and Jerk #2 was telling me about how his Corvette was faster and I should support America and buy American Muscle because the Corvette is better in the magazines... Blah blah blah. Anyway, I told the guy that I did own several Corvettes and I thought they were great cars. They are- and I do. I tried to be respectful, but just mostly wanted to get out of there. I have to say, the vast majority of interactions with fellow drivers are great. Interested, inquisitive, smart questions (some dumb) and lots of people take pictures. I always wonder about these guys who constantly complain about their car getting chewing gum stuck on them, soft drinks thrown at them- keyed up, dented and "vandalized." Sure, there will be a subsection of green haters, but to believe you are the target of random hatred. No, no- that's not random hatred and vandalism. If it happens more than once, you are probably a prick. Sorry. I drive my F-car daily, I do so politely and don't take up 4 prime parking spots or cut people off. People like these things, they don't like some of the drivers. Now- on the internet- I have absolutely been the subject of a great hate debate. It sucks. People dig around on you, post personal information and get really nasty. The anonymity of the internet brings out the worst trolls.
Whenever I have to deal w these wankers I get over it by going to my garage and trying to decide if I should drive my F40, Slutmobile, 512TR, Countach, Z06 or 512TR race car that day Their insults hit me so deep, I just dont know if I can survive
Thanks but I am selling all my Ferraris to make all my detractors here on Fchat happy I think I will buy 100 POS cars w the $ I make LOL
