We go through the same issues here in the UK but the offernders drive small diesel white vans. They usually drive erratically, fast, slow, change lanes with no indications, eat while driving (english brekfast in a large bun - bacon, beans fried egg, black pudding (pigs blood made into a burger), tomatoe, and heaps of ketchup, will also be on the phone wile eating (not hands free), and will generally be unshaven, wear earings, drink high caffein drinks to balance out the previous night alcohol, and have a copy of a pornographic tabloid newspaper on the dashboard and will be on their way to a construction site. I do not race thers characters as I also work on a construction site but in a bean counting role. Hate it when my 1 week old baby gets all muddy and dusty :thumbsdown:

Hey BMWguynj, I don't know what tangent you are off on, but mine was that this jerk was trying to shove HIS WEIGHT around by cutting me off and hotdogging...until he got to the curve. Then, that 140" wheelbase left him floundering. That thing is the nadir of American Iron and American marketing. Apparently you've never been leaned on by one of these boobs who think they own the world because they are sitting 3 feet higher than you, but I am sick of it. Now they are paying (and then some....lol) and if I get a chance for a thinking-man's move against one of these He-men, you'd better believe I will take it...with a big ole sh--eating grin. Let em flounder.

And FYI, I am the grandson/son of a charter (1928) Chrysler Corp dealer; so I know my American Iron too.

It's all in the choices we make,

Hey no problem at all and sorry for any misunderstanding. I just see so many people on BMW & Lexus forums (not your case as I realize now) bash how inferior the American vehicle is to their BMW & Lexus. I wonder if they realize that most of these vehicles are still made by Americans in America, so still respect your own heritage in that sense.
