misterp Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 I'll curb my language but the guy and his girlfriend had a real... bad... attitude. I tried to give a genuine compliment and - oh well. You guys just shoot me if I ever get nasty when someone compliments my vehicle. Mr. P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of SRT10 owners (IMO) aren't car guys... they're the type of guy who doesn't know sh!t about how to make something faster so they just go out and buy the fastest thing possible and assume their sh!t don't stink.

misterp Posted July 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 OK I'll bite.. Gimme details of the encounter!Well nothing much to tell, by chance I parked across the lane from a spanking-new black SRT-10 in the walmart parking lot, this truck was just gorgeous. And BIG, man those are a lot longer and sit a lot taller than I expected. A lady was loading groceries and a little girl into the back seat of the truck, so I approached with a smile and a cheery "Hi, how long have you had your new truck?" She quickly spun halfway on her heel and shot back "It's not my truck, it's HIS truck" pointing to a guy walking out the store in ratty hole-in-one-knee blue jeans and white t-shirt and continued what she was doing. I started walking and had enough time to think 'man what the hell was her problem' as I reached the 'owner' halfway to the store; I greeted him with "Hey, that's a really nice new Dodge you've got there." Without breaking stride he replies 'Listen brother - if you don't mind, we're leaving..." I instantly thought Total F-ing Dick and lost my cool, stepped in front of him and said "YEAH I mind, there's no relation between you and me but Adam. I only wanted to ask how you liked your new truck; enjoy the rest of your Saturday afternoon - see you around..." Gawd what's the problem with people these days? And this guy looked less like Grease and more like a plumber that just crawled out from under a house after chasing a fresh turd into the septic tank. I could picture in my mind the new Dodge parked next to a double-wide! But after I cooled off I thought better give them the benefit of the doubt, because you never know maybe they had just had a fight with each other... Either way that's no excuse to be nasty with others. So, there you have it, she's a common cow and he's a common a-hole. Rude f-ckers, they both deserve each other. Is it just this board or what? I have never been flipped of and told off etc when talking to other vehicles owners, no matter WHAT brand?!?! Most of the guys where I live are nice guys, CAR guys...? Theres the problem. Alot of SRT10 owners (IMO) aren't car guys... they're the type of guy who doesn't know sh!t about how to make something faster so they just go out and buy the fastest thing possible and assume their sh!t don't stink. Yup, both of them were total posers in their own way. Definitely not 'automotive enthusiasts' by any stretch. Some people just don't deserve the own nice vehicles if they can't even take a compliment.True, true. Just simple proof there's just no buying "cool" or "class". Mr. P.

zippy Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 judging by the sounds of that, he was likely just arguing with the wife. i'd guess you happened to step in the middle of them both going home pissed off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wizard Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 I got to agree with Zippy, he probably just had his bitchy wife givn him the "whatfor". Most people love to hear about how cool there rig is. And if not, at least your not married to his wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are just as many SS owners out there with bad attitudes, as proven by a few threads on this board. So if you are not a car guy then you should buy what? A Ford? If someone is not an Audiophile then they should not buy a stereo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
