Well instead of others showing off - you're showing off the first ZL1 snowplow!
Thanks for the video proof.

On a brighter note, I hear torque actually matters when snowplowing

Trucks

ll Hexy · 04-11-2023, 12:18 PM

Trucks mainly; all manufacturers . Sometimes other performance cars; chargers or mustangs.
Easter Sunday on the hour and half drive home from my parents through the back roads. An eco boost mustang deliberately waited at a stop sign for me to turn onto said back road so he could then tailgate/egg me to drive faster. I was in my ‘chill’ mode as I had spent the day with the fam and ignored him. He eventually zoomed by me as if he was Shelby himself. Whatever, a 4 cyl isn’t worth my gas

mariojas · 04-11-2023, 12:59 PM

Trucks are so weird. When I go into one I immediately turn on country music and just relax and slow roll.
But then I drive behind one of them, slow accelerating from a red light guy (thinking "sure, it's a truck, it drives relaxed"). I am overtaking him in my ZL1, also relaxed, because he was slow... No sudden moves, no red lining, nothing. In the middle of the maneuver - it gets harder - "hmmmm, is he trying to gain on me?", but it's ZL1 so no issue finishing the job. Then, after coming back to our lane (it was one lane each way, no center lane road in the middle of woods) - guy makes weird moves left and right, sitting on my tail like I just shot his wife or stole toilet paper from him. WTH people.

Also, I see a lot of truck drivers just hammering those cargo ships like they would be a sports car, sitting 3ft from car before them... Madness.

Believe it or not .... Mini-Vans, Prius, Trucks and just about anyone under the age of 25

Anjilslaire · 04-11-2023, 03:14 PM

Even in my 3LT I get clowns wanting to show off. Most Challengers.

My wife can be driving and says, 'what's that guy's problem?"
Me: ''uh, we're not in your Equinox, he's trying to race you, lol"

15% side tint and they can't see a 5' woman is driving

Had a fun one yesterday. My Camaro is a convertible and I was driving top down (1st time this year..yay me!).

At the light before a freeway entrance I was behind an S197 Mustang convertible (top up). He saw me in his mirror and I think decided to show off for his passenger and floored it. Did I mention that it was not a GT, so probably a V6? So I just glued to his bumper up to about 85 when he finally got a clue that he wasn’t all that and needed to shift lanes. Yes, I was being an ass. Slightly provoked, though.

I warned my wife that when you take out my LT1, be prepared to get annoyed. I told her EVERYONE hates Camaros and she hasn't been disappointed yet.

Here in Central VA, the mustang drivers are fairly chill. I've only had one try to get me to race. They usually just want to chat. The chargers however, are just ridiculous. They'll rev on a scooter.

Harley riders also like to rev on my car. I just put the car in Sport mode, wait until there is an overpass, and floor it. Scares the piss out of them.

no one really does that in miami which is kind of disappointing to me tbh, wouldn't mind the random chance to gap someone every now and again.
