I thought I posted this, but I didn't see it anywhere here.
A few days ago taking my dog to dog park as usual and get to a red light. Some guy about my age (40) is in a Frontier SUV booming Fabulous next to me, then proceeds to turn his shit way up and rattle his whole truck and my car .
I don't really jack-rabbit take off, but even driving lightly my car will easily hit 60 in 7 secs. Apparently this struck some kind of nerve with Mr. Frontier. I didn't have a clue untill he comes to a slightly skidding stop at the next red light. As we take off, he floors it. He gets about 5 seconds earlier to the next red light.
He does it again.
I am just like LOL...we get to the next red light and he kills his music and starts laughing. He is now talking to me so I lower my radio.
Mr. Frontier: "Yo, you know why you just lost both times?"
me: "Lost what?"
Mr. Frontier: "Yeah right, you just got smoked twice! Your car doesn't have any low-end torque! It's just good for the autobahn!"
me: "You thought I was racing you? Seriously, this car can hit 60 in under 5 seconds. Low end torque or not, your Frontier is more than double that."
Mr. Frontier: "Nah, they put slower times to make insurance cheaper!"
any how, I was done. I had my dog with me so I wasn't going to be too stupid, but he got an example of how fast I can get to 45.
Then he showed me how long it took him to get to 80mph+ as he blew through the next red light.
WTF is wrong with people.
This thread has predictably turned into a train wreck. -DrPizza
