Now that you mention that, I've never seen an obese person in a BMW. It's because they get their cardio workout in parking lots.

Seriously, WHAT IS UP with Toyota drivers these days? I swear, every time I see an idiot on the road, he's driving a Toyota or a Lexus, with an occasional Scion thrown in for a good measure. I am certain that I am to stay the **** away from any Rav4, Matrix, Corolla - or any other derivative thereof! WORST DRIVERS DRIVE RAV4's - this is my FIRM belief, based on experience. Those Lexus RX drivers are mostly douchebags too... just to think that some of these people are switching into the Lexus F10... But I digress. My hypothesis is hereby stated: RAV4 drivers are ALL douchebags. As are most drivers of a Corolla-derived vehicle. Maybe it is something about the architecture of that car that turns perfectly good drivers into total idiots? Maybe the issue is MUCH deeper than some "sudden acceleration" phenomena?

We're LOL'ing, but what if it is true? And these assholes are taking over our roadways too - have you seen how many Toyotas are on the road these days?

When raw emotions are high and if that idiot says something to piss you off even more--the situation will get really ugly! It is a lot cheaper to replace car parts than replace missing limbs or compensate someone for missing limbs!
You are absolutely correct

If you really wanted to get back at the guy, you could've called the cops, have them file a report. Then take this report to his insurance company and get yourself a brand new bumper. Did I hear someone say "M-tech"?

Everybody(including me) complaint about having front license plate, actually it makes good bump guard.
You coudn´t be more right about that.. true.. that license plate is ugly as hell it squares what is supposed to be round, but yes.. its a hell of a good bumper...
Last week, while parking behind another TOYOTA IDIOT (with at least 6 ft of separation from his car) to drop my 2yr old daughter to school, this guy, when leaving, couldn´t get enough momentum to compensate the hill and hit me... braked right at the end, but still hit me. NOTHING happened to my car... as he hit me right on the license plate (thank god) and TO HIS CAR, you could see my two license plate screws marked on his bumper...

+1 Toyota and Lexus are owned by people who have very poor driving habits and etiquette. I agree that a majority of them are a huge liability on the road. Maybe this thread should be renamed Toyota drivers SUCK!!!

Sorry that happened. Not everyone is as careful as we would think they should be. But allow me to at least bring up a little point which I doubt that many will grasp and even care to hear.... This was a blessing in disguise. You received a chance to to good to your brother (forgive him, calmly explain to him) and it's a good thing you didn't use profanity. I admire people like you. everything can make us upset or happy etc...but do we EVER use the aggravating things to our advantage? For instance I ordered a 55" LCD TV a few weeks back and it arrived with a shattered screen. I did not get upset because I've learned my lessons....I used this to my advantage. The TV was returned and instead of being angry I focused and got a new TV. Instead of paying a couple grand I got the TV for about $500...how about that? If I had gotten angry perhaps it wouldn't have went that route....I didn't want to get it for $500 but that was another blessing....see I wanted to just get $500 off and someone misunderstood me and gave it to me for $500. Perhaps sometimes things happen and we also deserve them. For instance I was looking in the mirror in my early 20's admiring myself and then same day I got into a fight and one guy took a closed bottle of Dom Perignon to my face....the bottle didnt break, my cheek, nose and eye socket did. I do not believe in coincidences.. Is it Karma? No I don't believe in "karma" but it's along similar lines. What is meant to be is already meant to be and there is nothing you can do to change that. Good or Bad.
