Default a commute for the books

well. . .I finaly ran into an eco-nutjob. . . .driving a hybrid

I pull up to a stoplight at a not so buisy 4 lane hwy, first in line and notice one of them fancy toyota prius hybrids with out of state tags(california, yes, california tags). I was just minding my own buisness waiting for the light to change so I could get home. when I hear this "HEY. . HEY YOU IN THE TTRRUUUUUUCK!!!! I roll my window down thinking he would be asking for direction since he was from out of town. What I hear next is beyond belief. This guystarts ranting on how fuel efficient his car is and what great fuel mileage he gets and how much pollution my truck produces. . .then it gets wierd.

I tell him "thats great, I feel wonderfull for you realy. . .I do, but I dont care." I roll up my passenger window to hopefully give the guy the idea that I just dont want anything to do with him. . .and he opens up his door, gets out of his car and starts screaming at me about how much damage I do to the environment.

here I am thinking to myself. . .WHY did I decide last night was a good night to take my ruger .44 out of my truck and clean it[:@]

sothat makes me startwondering if this jack@55 is going to key my truck or whatnot and force me to get out and put my size 13.5 foot dead in his 4th point of contact.

oh, if your wondering. . .this is a VERY long light for some screwed up DOTreason at a not so buisy intersection.

well. . .this guy is getting so heated about how I am doing such harm to the environment and sees my military hat. . .then starts calling me everything but the son of God. . .this guy is about to blow a headgasket. . and yes, baby killer actualy made it in there. . .I so wanted to kick this guys @55. However, I am doing all I can to keep from laughing at this guy and his massive veins sticking out of his head that I notice the light for the other lane goes yellow. . .finaly. . .I can get away from this nitwit.

I quickly reach down and crank my TST to intersection shutdown mode(8/8), thrown the stick into 3rd, nudge up a bit, and see this guy actualy walking with my truck. so I nudge forward just enough to get my exhaust pipe even with his STILL OPEN CAR DOOR. light goes red, green left turn arrow comes up. . .

Scotty, I need 2000RPM and 10lbs of boost

eye-eye captian.


guy's. . . I need a new clutch after thatbrake stand. [8D]

I look over in my side mirror, while he is still screaming and hollering at me oblivious to the fact that his nice and clean honda prius hybrid is quickly filling up with the thickest smoke my truck has ever produced, I thinkmy truckwas also getting irritated. light finaly turns green after the turn arrow and I'm out of there burning my rear tires up. about 2 miles down the road once the other cars catch up with me all I see are thumbs up. well the next light I'm door to door with another honda SUV. he rolls down his wondow and we chat a bit. he tells me he heard the entire conversation and abouthow the two of them got into a heated debat at one of the starbucks. he then tells me when the looser econo-**** looked back at his car he got so mad about the smoke in it he slammed his door closed. . .neglecting to realize his doors were locked!!!

I'm still laughing. . my sides still hurt

I just thought I would share that with ya'll. I wish I had a video camera. . . . . .

that was so good I had to reread it again.. this time aloud to my wife. She enjoyed it quite a bit and now wants her own truck even more to do the same when necessary.

I kinda got the same attitude when I took my truck to the dragway in Commerce. The NHRA crowd really don't like our trucks and I was even pulled over by a 4 wheeler while I was driving around the pits and told to not drive through there anymore that people had been complaining about the smell and smoke....again to quote Mayfair... Pfffft !! That kind of stuff just makes me want to give them more !

No one should ever have to put up with that ****, expecially someone that has served our country[8D]. Good job keeping your cool, don't know if I would have been able to.

This would be me

I would lost have my cool, I can not stand people like that. I have actually put my truckin reverse and chase a guy from a light because they honked(three times)at me for not turning right an red (there were cars coming). I would have lost it on that guy.
