I'm a guy and I think most ladies will agree with me here--------
Most dudes that have gigantic or lifted pick-ups are insecure with themselves and striving to be more macho. Usually trying to compensate for a lack of something in the southern region. That's why they act like jerks when they're out driving!!!!!!!!
I'd certainly agree. Hate, hate, hate these stupid monsters!

Excuse my ignorance, but I've always wondered what's with these disgustingly loud cars on the streets... Seriously, why are they so loud? Many of them don't appear to be pieces of crap... Evidently you consider it cool, but I'm with that one girl, the exception.
I love that deep rumble, and I get compliments on the exhaust all the time. It's not like those idiots that slap coffee can mufflers on their little Civics and Eclipses to make them sound like pissed off bumble bees.
It's a performance thing. Gives the car more power and it sounds better.
POS cars are usually loud because the exhaust systems rust off. Ours are loud because we modify the exhaust system.
OK, I got it - you turn a perfectly good car into a POS deliberately! Thanks.
Must be another one of those p***s extension things... Only that I highly doubt the majority of women would like something like that, but I may be old and/or old-fashioned.

How about this... A buddy of mine just purchased a brand new $80k Benz and he did the exhaust (among other things). You can actually feel the vibration in your chest when it sits there idling. His is definitely overboard.
What about those guys who replace their car horns with train horns?
Someone who drives by our place has a Toyota Tacoma truck...with a train horn. It sounds exactly like a train in the distance! It's hilarious, because you have to stop and think...how could a train be out on the street...?

That's insane! Why do they even waste their money?! Just buy a POS! Really, who in his right mind would want to be uncomfortable and spend 80K to achieve THAT?!
Well, around here we see a lot of people with flashy rides. I have two schools of thought - depending on who it is. Small, flashy sportscar - he's either very wealthy or has a very small 'you-know-what' ... or both. We call them "Big Machers".

Oh I know why he bought that car...and it has nothing to do with the car itself.
I'm so glad I'm one of those guys who doesn't care what people think of me based on what car I drive. It makes it a lot easier to buy a car if the only person I worry about impressing is me.
