Default Arrogant/Selfish Drivers?

Has anyone been in their Dodge, driving down the road minding their own business, when a Ford/Chev owner comes up beside you, mashes their gas down to the floor and cuts in front of you, then gives you the finger, then pulls back up beside you and asks to race?

Well, that just happened to me... I beat his *** in the race mind you, just to shut him up, but wow, some people are just idiots out there!

Has anyone else been the victim of "Racial Truck Profiling?"

Trucks usually leave me alone since it looks like something an 85 year old would drive with 2wd, chrome and striping packages and tiny wheels but small 'sports' cars try and see if the hemi badge is real. They always get a good look at the badging on my tailgate.

I hear that. There's this Mitsubishi spyder '99 that keeps pulling up next to me at red lights and wants to race. Only did once, and beat him badly. But I don't make a habit of racing people, heck, I hardly drive the truck, mainly to and from work.

I don't make a habit of it either. Especially considering there's often a set of cheeks in one of the two car seats in the back of each of my vehicles. I guess they can't see that with the tint but heck they can run home thinking I was scared if it makes them feel better!

haha same kind of thing happened to me. theres a civic in my town thats RIDICULOUSLY "tricked" out with a horrid paint job, fart can, wing ect...so we were at the stop light and he did the same thing, revved it up for(assuming a girl, couldnt see) and hit the rev limiter and back fired. i litterally LOL'ed, rolled my window down, let the 5.7 adn the cherry bomb do the talking and roasted my tires when it turned green. saw him a couple weeks later at the same exact light and i didnt hear a peep from the 4 banger. LOVED IT!

I did have three or four rug-rats in a Chevy 4x4 want to try me one Sunday. Mind you, I had a lawn tractor and a load of furniture on my trailer. Duh!
