LOL ! Funniest thing I have read in a while
Re #1 : I don't understand Land Rover owners. They own cars that can drive up a 45 degree mountain slope but most have probably never peed in the woods
Re #2 : Especially White Escalades - particularly clueless/dangerous. Beware of them especially in parking lots.
Re #3 : Agree here also, most elderly people think they can drive "however the hell they want to"

3) I know a number of people in their late 20s and 30s who have Buicks. Granted, they are land yachts, but it's quite funny to see people's eyes go all when they look over, see a young person, and then when the light changes, the Buick takes off because it's got mods. Not that I'd know about such things.

4) NOT!

I think SUVs win, hands down, namely Expeditions. Just all over the road like they own it. My ex-boss exemplifies: She has one and the twit can barely steer it, then had the nerve to claim that her kid flunked her road test because of "discrimination about the size of the vehicle." You know, because it couldn't possibly be that the kid couldn't manage it. And that's the problem: Half the people who drive them can't handle them.

Other offenders: Excursions, Tahoes, Suburbans. Just say no to broadarse driving.

At least there aren't many Hummers up here. Those would have to take the cake, especially the yellow ones. Now there's yer small weenie.

I'm surprised Mustangs are not on the list so far. All those fast car owners love to cut ya on the road.... just waiting for a small opening in front of you !!
The big SUV's, I just hate them when they tailgate you in the right lane.... jeez !!
Another crazy thing is when the person behind you thinks you are too slow entering the LIE from the ramp and gets into the LIE lane before you do and speeds up, and believe me I drive at decent speed.

Why not throw 3-series in there too? Actually at 40k, financing at today's low rates are just as easy. Many of your traditional cars are now up at 30k+... minivans can easily be high 30s-40s.

Meh, I don't blame people like that unless they actually almost clip you (which a lot of people exaggerate)... they bought the car to have fun. If they get a ticket they know they deserve it. Not everyone wants to drive a Civic or Prius to get from A to B.
