I am a bmw driver, and I intentionally always use my blinker and follow the 3 second following rule as to not tailgate. I am very mindful of it because I know the stigma and I like the fact that I beat it.
I'm just the opposite & I love it😂
thank you, not all hero’s wear capes
@Brendan Okeson - I am a BMW driver and I intentionally overtake without using my blinker/ tailgate people who sit in the fast lane driving 10km under the speed limit.
I drive a Porsche and intentionally cut and pass BMWs to remind them that they got the wrong car and that Porsche’s are Germany’s finest.
Lord Master - you do realise you’re driving an overpriced Tiguan.. each to their own I guess.
They have this unexplainable nostalgia for an era they didn't live.
*Me while watching 90s drift videos from Japan*:😫😫😫

Bro I saw this guy at the gas station with a 458 and I just wanted to talk to him about his Ferrari. He didn't even look at me... He waved and hopped in his car then revved his engine a bit to flex and left the gas station. I am 19 and LOVE cars with a passion... Dude killed my dreams a bit ngl.
Ferraris are investments
When I owned my Ferrari. I always let people take pictures and would talk to them about it. The history. I liked seeing people happy.
he probably didn't know shit about his car lol, you dodged a bullet 💯
i wouldnt let that bother you bro. Just work hard,smart and take calculated risk and you'll have your own ferrari someday.
@@tyrannicalrex3624 Appreciate the words man. Means a lot🙏🏾
SUVs are the new minivans. The car manufacturers realized that minivans had a connotation about soccer moms, so they started making SUVs and crossovers to capture the same buyers. RAV4, Escape, Equinox, CRV, Crosstrek, etc… low power, extra room, not meant for off-road. soccer-mom minivans.
As a prius driver I can say this. The only reason I got a prius is for the mpg not because it's quiet or eco friendly. Tbh I could care less about the environment
Yup, I just want the thing to say 80+ mpg. So satisfying.
Yeah I would only buy a car like a prius to save money especially with the current gas prices
People get caught up in the “I need to look cool while driving” mindset so they go out and get a gas guzzling v6 coupe even as a 2nd car that will be their daily. If you have a project car why not just shed the ego and pick up a Prius as your daily, making you look just a tad feminine, but also able laugh at others spending $150 every week on gas
😭
I bought one cause gas prices only go up
Toyota drivers are always in the fast lane slowing everyone else down
NY NY It should be legal to run a Prius off the road when it’s in the left lane
I drive a Toyota and am in the centre or right lane...in the fast lane to pass slower traffic or get the idiots here in Southern Ontario to move over. When you drive a Tacoma or Tundra...blinding LED Lights do the trick.
Prius. What's really annoying 35 in a 50 zone, passed a Ferrari but it was going slow
Passing lane*
Lol not all, I own 2019 avalon and not a slow driver, also own 1995 acura integra gsr....
The whole time I kept on thinking the next one he would say was a mustang driver. But it never came
or Prius .... he went Lezbaru instead
Agreed
Same but with the miata
such disappointment
@@hpcarthech4387 So true! Miata drivers are soooo slow, they should use bike lane 🤣
My dad was a UPS driver for 26 years. He’s owned a ‘84 Corvette, a 66’ Fastback, and still uses his ‘92 F-250. But he also has a Prius. He told me that the only reason he got it was from all the constant thrumming of the engines that the delivery trucks made, all day, 6 days a week, from 7:30-8:00. He just wanted something a little quieter.
The thing I don't understand about lifted trucks is the legality. How is it totally fine to be 15 feet in the air, but if I want to lower my car and inch every cop pulls me over because my car is "a little bit too low" So stupid.
It's like bro has never seen a Baja bug, a mud truck or sleeper minivan
Even BMW drivers can be hostile to other BMW drivers. When I still owned my silver 335i sedan I got cut off by someone who also had a silver 335i sedan. When I honked at him he gave me the bird.

The RICERS 😂🤣
Yup, being a ricer is cool now
ahhhh!!
JDMs are bad influence too
V6 Mustang drivers
Haha civic go brrrr
I definitely can identify to the BMW and Prius drivers I would like to add Tesla drivers also!
Tesla driver's are that same category and are more obnoxious than drivers of hybrids
Though, I don't have any problem with hybrid owners, mainly due to the fact that they're driving something that's a lot more practical than an all-electric car
I who'd add lambo owners to after hearing what he said about ferrari owners as one my self I could confirm that it was not real at all instead that fit's more in to lambo drivers trying to flex every single moment of there life. But just understand that not all lambo drivers are like this but living in LA this is the description for lamborghini drivers.
@@skifter0013 it might not apply to Ferrari owners like you, but I'm certainly that there are some Ferrari owners who do match up with the one's that Brad is describing
@@karlsmith2570 Yes I understand that and there certainly are but in my opinion the description fitede in more on lambo owners but ferrari owners are not perfect either.
hahahaha lets goo!
I am a BMW driver and I love my car so much even though it’s 6 years old. I did notice when driving that other BMW drivers drive at least 60 mph on a 45 in whatever lane they want lol. ( I must say I am guilty of this too but I always use my turn signal and don’t cut people off)
60 in a 45! THAT CAR CAN IDLE DOING 80 IN A 45.
How about tickets? i['m guessing you keep one or two on your record.
@@mrlafayette1964I mean no I always go like 20 over but have no tickets lmao. Don’t even drive a BMW.
Subaru Outback drivers are always at least 15mph below the posted limit, and always wait for a left turn arrow to change from green to yellow before initiating a turn.
Ram drivers have no depth perception.
...and yes, BMW drivers have no idea what a turn signal is.
TBH wagons can be pretty cool I would get one any day over a suv or a minivan.
For me I wouldn't drive a mini van, if I'm getting a van it would be a full size high top conversion van from the 90's or before. I'd be rollin in style
Hot hatch for me, wagons are a bit much
Wagons and hatches for me but I'd rather have a wagon they are underrated and can be sleepers
@@Jac735 My brother had the perfect sleeper. 1986 Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park LS that came from the factory with a 351W (5.8 litres) as well as the Trailer Tow III Package. He put on a custom 2¼ inch dual exhaust and an Edelbrock Performer Intake and square bore carburetor. Output was a bit above 250 hp @ 4,600 rpm and 450 lb/ft of torque at 2,200 rpm. Even with wood grain panelling that was very capable of running with almost anything made in North America. It handled well too. The big bonus was the 7 litres per 100 kilometers, which is 40 miles to the Imperial gallon.

Personally as a car guy I love the sound of an Italian v12
I remember when i was going to MacDonald with my dad, he own a Alfa Romeo GT, and a guy just kept going at a intersection when my dad had the priority to pass, and he nearly hit us, a few seconds later, the guy got out of his car and came towards us, so my dad stopped and got out of his car aswell, and the way the guy acted differently right after seeing my dad was kinda hilarious, because the Alfa Romeo GT is one of those cars that you can more likely find a young driver about 20-25 years old behind the wheel so that guy thought it was so but no, he saw my dad who was around 45 years old
Now remember, don't let stereotypes fools you, some drivers can be exceptions to this
I drive a light blue Miata. I love how the car handles more than anything, but it does send certain signals that don't quite ring true. When the tunes coming out of the car are bands like Slayer, Mudvayne and Gwar, people tend to figure out that I'm neither a hairdresser or a teenage girl.
Same with me blasting Metal/Rap and driving 10+ over in my bug lmao

You went straight for the jugular by starting off strong on BMW drivers! 😆
When I herd subaru I thought he's gonna say about vape nation
but... did i?
Or lesbians and granola hippies (which he ended up saying). Its true though I went on a family road trip recently and there was a lot of granolas driving Subarus in the middle of nowhere.
I mean minivans aren’t just for soccer moms, my best friend has 4 siblings so there’s 5 kids, makes Since to own a van 🤷♂️
I would go more for an SUV but ok
Sameer Ramdeen not everyone can afford a SUV, but this year they did get one, a Expedition.
I would personally get a Sprinter van, once your kids grow up, remove the seats and build a camper 🤔
@@420blazedude Transit's also a good choice
Right. Though if I ever had the need for 3 rows of seats I'd get a Dodge Durango with a Hemi V8 like an R/T or SRT model. Oh and btw, no offense and not meaning to be a grammar/spelling nazi/police but its sense not Since.
I drive a 2002 WRX STI. My exhaust is a bit loud and it has a blow off valve but that’s not because I want to race everyone I see or piss people off. I drive it for my own pleasure, I bought one because I’ve always wanted to own one
When my buddy drove a minivan in high school we always rode around with the doors slid open. Cuz the AC didn’t work and we felt like we were door gunners.
Door gunners oh yea

Lmao yesss good times. Rollin with the homies in the family van.
I think there should be a caveat for mildly lifted trucks. imo, a 3-5" lift with 33-37" tires is pretty reasonable, especially if you actually go off-road with it. I'm not a big truck guy, and my wife's Jeep is only slightly lifted, but I think a mild lift and reasonably larger tires makes a stock truck exponentially more capable for camping, hunting and off-road tomfoolery
Definitely agree. There's overlander lifted and monster truck wannabe lifted. I think that the average Joe, when you say lifted truck, imagines the mini monster truck, and doesn't even think of an overlanding rig. At least, that's what all the pictures in the video show.
Yes. Even a leveling lift helps a ton. It’s so much smoother of a ride and more capable than most factory systems. I’ve got a 2006 F250 with a 2.5” leveling lift on it with 33s and it is so much better now than before
Drive a big rig. The only king of the road. Truckers got a term for you lifted trucks, cars. You're called "a four wheeler". The title fits. Big rig. KING OF THE ROAD...period. you ever see a lifted truck pull up beside a big rig? Looks like a tonka toy truck.
I have been watching this channel for a short time now and thanks for the content. You guys have help bring me back to why I love cars and car culture
Stereotypes are often unfair and too broad, but at the same time they aren’t completely baseless and there are groups of people that constantly contribute to them
What your car says about you:
Chevy Traverse: You want a Chevy that looks like a Ford Exploror.
my main wheels are a model 3, but the family minivan is sheer utility and i cannot deny that
if you drive a g35 or a g37 means ur probably in high school ☝🏼
I’m in highschool and drive a Q60.
Luc Smith what
It does have a very sweet engine.
FR they do tho 😂
Wait, do y'all drive in high school? That's LIT!
We out here a) graduate from high school a year or two before being old enough to drive; and b) the absolute majority of us can't afford ANY type of a car before the age of around 30.
Also, 99% of us are white.
A couple weeks ago i went to a e30 meet, 53 e30s showed up, yet none were jerks/ bragged about their cars. Overall 3 people did do burnouts, but it was in an old parking lot. We had a barbeque to 2am in the morning, and everyone was really nice. The next day one person did a little bit of speeding, but nothing too seeious. It's almost like you weren't right about ,,most of them brag/ drive irresponsibly" thing.
Pretty much every example in this video mostly applies to the drivers that aren't car guys.
The E30 is a different animal, due to its cult status, BMW stereotypes just don't apply to this gem of a car. I've been a 6 Series coupe (E63, LCI) owner for 12 years and use the blinkers but hate the stereotypes 😊.
As a lifted truck driver (only 4in lift), i can agree with that when it comes to the stupidly huge lift kits lol. I find 4-6in lifts to be just enough to keep it practical, and make it more fun lol. And im gonna say that all the show trucks you showed are a NOPE from me dawg lol
Looks like he's compensating for something😏😏😏
Nah I have an 18'lift and 22'coilovers 40x15.50r20..he's no parking lot princess.
Those insanely lifted trucks go by two names "The Compensator", (for obvious reasons), and, "The Pavement Princess", (all show, no go), so whenever I see em I actually feel a little sorry for em, cause deep down you know that they most likely lack that size where it counts.
I own a lifted ram 3500 (6 inch lift on 37s with 20x10 rims) and honestly I don't really mind if someone says its compensation, you can say its decently practical, but I will say from my own opinion, all those show trucks he showed look really stupid. I like going big, but not so big I look stupid. And I like to believe that my size also makes my truck look almost normal sized.
Id love to rent out one of those trucks and tailgate people and then when they get scared, i pass em fast and close while coal rolling and then they will see the magnetic bumper decal i put on that says: 4 inches is plenty. Lol
I live in a very posh street in Kensington (not to be confused with Philadelphia) in Central London, my car is exclusive because it's not a Range Rover or a Porsche not even a Maserati or one of 3 Bentleys but a 2008 Smart Car which is automatic has air conditioning, pump up tyres and see through glass just the same as a Bentley and I can always find a space to park! Now here's the thing I probably have more money than most of my show off neighbours!
I feel like minivans are no longer the definition of a soccer mom, SUVs are becoming the ride for them
Drivers that are pissed at BMW drivers are people who use the roads for slowmotion
Sport mode in my Z4 is highly addictive
I keep seeing old BMW M3s with loud custom excausts but they barely move. Im not kidding.
So I guess 85 in the left lane was slow motion to the 3 series that snaked me on my way to work today. If you’re triggered by this you’re the problem

Ben Dover I’ll have you know I am excellent at multitasking!
My car got caught in a Flash flood and the water sucked up through my tailpipe and ruined my engine but a really nice guy in a lifted truck towed me out I have a lot more respect for lifted trucks now. The higher your tailpipe is from the ground, the deeper you can drive through puddles. So they actually DO have a practical purpose.
I wonder how he puts his groceries inside his truck 🤣
Oh and BTW, I am now one of those annoying prius drivers. Didn't do it to save the environment though, I drive 150 miles a day and I like getting 50+ mpg
I always thought the lifted pickups were for the country boys so when they catch a deer on the road, it goes under instead of through the window, so shocked when I found out that wasn’t the real reason
Live in the country and yes I see so many no shit
If that's your concern you have a big chrome grill guard, you don't need a lift.
Personally, I judge more by bumper stickers and state tags than what type of car you drive. Maryland drivers in particular
Has this dude never heard of offroading? There is a huge distinction between a ridiculous pavement princess, and a Tacoma with a 6" lift on 33s. One is stupid the other is fun and versatile.
Having a lifted truck isn’t about how much stuff you can haul it’s about the off-road capabilities and I know that I will definitely get a lifted truck sometime in my lifetime
There's lifted and there's lifted. Some of the kits that were pictured in the video are so beefy that they don't even really have improved ground clearance. It's definitely diminishing returns. Look at serious overlanders and you rarely find anything over a 4" lift.
Exactly. Hunks of junk. I bet they hate when inspect ion time rolls around. Buying tires...upkeep... where's the practicality for such?
Non-Car guy: HEY YOU, YES YOU
Car guy: Wait, wtf r u callin me?
Because it says no view that doesn't make u first..because it told me it has no views but im not boasting about it.
my grandpa and father shared a bmw 7 745d some years later the engine broke when we were in germany we tried to revive it but later found out there were rats under the hood now the bmw is in my home town bulgaria ruse sitting we gave it to the mechanic to try and fix it 2 times now but it just wouldnt start up im now 11 and i miss my bmw 745d :(

That's exactly why you drive a lifted truck
right?!
Especially if you take it offroad a lot
In Borneo, we drive stock pick ups with heavy loads.
Joke's on you I never played or been to a soccer game in my life.
Thes stereotypes are coming from the fact that these are fairly rare cars on the road and they catch ppls eyes.
In truth, most of us are terrible drivers regardless 😅
It's always funny to watch lifted pickups take turns
You forgot that lifted pickup drivers are trying to compensate for something
You right man I know from experience lol
So if you drive a small car you’re compensating for something else
yep. its like they're screaming "Hey let me show you without actually showing you how small my dick is"

"Driven by hippies" Is not what I first thought when I saw my neighbor's bike v8 swapped widebody AWD beetle.
Prius drivers are worst drivers in the state of Washington. I’m driving 10 to 12 hours a day, I know what I’m talking about!
I disagree about minivans being soccer mom cars. I've had an '86 Aerostat and later, an '87 Astro. Both were in great shape and ran very well. I did not have to hold a gun to people's heads to let them ride in them. And made money with them to boot
I have a 2020 toyota corolla and when I bought brand new everyone looked at me like if that was a ferrari lmao
I currently own a new lifted Silverado and a new Prius. I’ve also owned the majority of vehicles you listed. I don’t think I fit the stereotypes, I just have a love for cars...
Lifted is better than squatted, at least
Title: what your car says about you Me 2 seconds later after watching: *casually trying to date my dad's peugeot*
There’s a difference between a lifted truck that’s only lifted a 2 to 4 inches for stance and off-road capability versus a 36 inch lifted truck that has super fancy suspension and super large wheels with the tiniest tires. They can fit on them. There’s a big difference though you right.
Spot on with BMW.
Some Mercedes-Benz drivers fall in that category too.
In today's day & age, in North America, I would say in the words of Jeremy Clarkson, "The cocks are still driving the pickup trucks."
Same goes for Australia, you mainly see lifted f150s and rams in the middle of the city cutting you off and driving like assholes with perfectly clean mud tires but out country you see the smaller navaras and hiluxs that are actually put to work.
I have a hybrid Rav4(some may say it's an over grown Prius), but it sips gas like tea, and actually has decent power for a daily driver that's not meant to be flashy.
I think people need to stop thinking that an electric car is just to save the world. They are Hella fast, and that's really what it should come down too.
As an ex Lexus and current BMW owner, I do talk about how good my cars are/were. Because BMW is indeed a car designed for drivers and motoring enthusiasts, they are fun to drive. Lexus may not be the most fun to drive amongst the premium segment, however the Lexus IS250 is still a relatively fun car to drive with a V6 NA engine, rear wheel driven and comes with a whole list of plush equipments that merc c class, bmw 3 series and Audi A4s doesnt have (in the UK market). So essentially you are paying BMW 3 series money, you get to enjoy the agility of a bmw 3 series whilst having bmw 5 series level of luxury! I still miss my IS250 but with the rising petrol prices nowadays I had to let it go.
I was laughing so hard at the BMW part. Lol🤷♂️
I think the mustang drivers deserve their own episode
Lifted trucks are only good when there are flash floods😂
I have a 2000 jeep wrangler with a hemi swapped in and more travel than a ford raptor
I've jumped it higher than most raptors on the road
And off-roading since it gives ground clearance and wheel well space so you fit a taller tire or wheel. And a little bit of lift with big tires looks cool in my opinion
driving a lifted truck is like becoming giant in Mariokart
Ur unfair to lifted trucks! They are beautiful and I find most of the drivers to have a pretty generous braking distance and generally good driving etiquette. I drive a tiny hatchback, but if I feel more threatened by any car it’s a fucking challenger! Especially poorly maintained ones. Only the dirtiest drive those!
There's definitely different types of lofted trucks. Some actually serve a purpose for offroading in which case everything you said is wrong. The massive sky high mall crawlers with low profile tires on the other hand are just stupid
Honestly, anyone can say anything about lifted trucks, usually they don't serve a real purpose except to look really nice and feel like you're driving a tank (just my opinion), for the off-road part, mostly everyone who owns a lifted truck likes to say they use it for off-road purposes but most people don't. I own a lifted Ram 3500 with a 6 inch lift on 37s, I daily drive it to work and don't do much with it, I personally love every second of it. I've had comments saying its compensation but its whatever man. I like what I like you feel me?
I don’t understand the “offroad” benefit, you don’t really get that much benefit lifting a body on frame vehicle. The dif height is still the same so it kind of defeats the purpose?
"I'm not gonna get caught driving a minivan."
Uh, bullshit. If Bisi Ezrioha threw you the keys to his 1000+hp Odyssey, you would be caught driving a van.

My lifted truck isn't pointless it's made for me to have fun I don't really care if people don't feel safe around it I like to mud and I like to off-road just like you like to go fast in your cars. Everybody's got different preferences bud. Not mad still love your videos just saying lifted trucks aren't pointless.
Started out with a '68 Beetle then moved onto a Saab. My next car will be a Jaaaag
All the soccer moms have moved over from driving minivans, and are now driving mid sized Suvs like Toyota Highlanders and Hyundai Santa Fes.
Living in Florida, yes I’m not a huge fan of lifted trucks. However, the part saying that they’re not practical, is an understatement. They are a HUGE life saver when it comes to floods/getting stuck in thick mud, and it really isn’t as much of a pain to put stuff in the back as you would think
Im a lifted truck guy although i only lift to imprive off roading capability so i usually use a 2-3 inch lift kit depending on the type and size of the truck
Lifted trucks and Jeep's are good when you are in the country and small towns not in the big city areas. They are also good to have when you are off road or in a area that gets a lot of snow. or rain that makes the area flood. Lifted vehicles don't really belong in the big city.
as a owner if a 30in lifted ford f350 I can tell you I daily my truck and have no problem with driving it and looks good while doing it
So for the area that I live in it gets very muddy during the summer and spring months a lifted 4wd truck or jeep makes a decent bit of sense but yea I understand why most people don’t need it

BMW Z4, so get out of the fast lane if not doing 75 mph or more
Very interesting video. Wonder what my car says about me. I drive a 1990 Volvo 240DL wagon. With 76.6 cubic feet of cargo room, it can handle a lot of cargo both by volume and weight. It also happens to be fun in the corners.
As a fellow wagon lover (first car was the hideous Aussie drift machine, 2000 AU falcon wagon) I'm curious if this car has leaf springs in the rear or traditional struts? Is it easy to work on, is it reliable etc. In my country Volvo's are less common but I'm very interested in them
You're a very reasonable man with an excellent car. You love a car without the unnecessary bits but with a lot of practicality. You're basically the superior car owner (totally not saying this because i also own a box shaped wagon from the 90s).
@@j4y167 The live axle in back has separate coils and dampers on the lower trailing arms. There are also upper trailing arms and a Panhard rod to locate the axle properly. As for reliable, Arthur is at 619,000 kilometers on the clock, which is about 385,000 miles. In 33 Ontario, Canada winters the car has never been stuck. The only times I have had to pull off the road has been in freezing rain. Arthur was fine, but the idiots in their minivans on all season tires who would not slow down even after seeing other idiots with their minivans stuffed into ditches or guardrails. The only times I have not tried is when the road I need to travel has been closed by the Police and Ministry of Transport because the snow drifts are too deep and the plows need time to clear the road.
As an aside, Arthur is a one family car. Ma bought him new as her 60th birthday present to herself. She took delivery on 17 January, 1990, and I have every piece of paper for the car going back to the day Ma placed the order.
@@wezerd My dream wagon is a 1988/89 Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park LS with the 351 (5.8 litre) Windsor V8 and the heavy duty Trailer Tow III Package. Swap the intake and carb to Edelbrock Performer pieces, swap out the 2 inch dual exhaust and go custom mandrel bent 2¼, and horsepower jumps from 215 to about 250, torque goes from 390 lb/ft at 2200 rpm to 450 lb/ft at 2100 rpm. Fuel economy will be roughly 34 miles to the US gallon, 40 miles to the Imperial gallon, or 7 litres per 100 kilometers. It will also come with a tow rating of 6,000 pounds and a Combined Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of 12,500 pounds. I had an 89 LS sedan and my brother had an 86 Colony Park LS wagon. As unbelievable as the fuel consumption sounds, both cars were doing that. My sedan was wrecked in a crash at 185,000 miles. The wagon was scrapped at 550,000 miles due to the body mounts breaking after an unintended off road trip down a hill and into a tree. My brother didn't think it was a good idea to spend $1,500 to save it.
Practical
As a BMW driver myself, I do agree to the fact that lot of other BMW drivers are such idiots for not using blinkers and tailgating
I ,myself, always use blinkers and hell i still get tailgated by other BMW drivers,even though I drive one ^^
The lifted truck argument, there is a certain height until it's considered impractical, the factory lift on my 75, practical, the sema trucks not so much, especially anyone who puts rubber bands for tires
I drive a pick up. I never understood the whole lifted pick up thing. They lift them to the point of being useless. The guy that drives a lifted pick up drives pavement Princess. Great video
this guy’s enthusiasm has gone down so much... and im so glad. It was hard to watch before, it felt so fake but now its much more natural. I like it
Ideal media deserves more subs.
Couldn't agree more!
Regarding the bmw one, the other day I was in my 98 gmc truck lol, going home from work and an Audi suv was less than a foot and a half from me, looking out my rear window. I get on the gas and haul ass around the vehicle in front of me to gain distance and the Audi driver follows, I let off and they blow past me, then hit the brakes almost me to hit them, needless to say I reported the license plate to the authorities. I know not all drivers of German luxury cars do that but most in this town. It’s saddening
you know the authorities just threw that report in the trash and didnt even write anything down when you called it in right? cops literally have better things to do than deal with your butthurt. Maybe they ripped around you because no one can see around your compensation mobile and want to actually see the road conditions ahead of them without having to drop down to 5 mph to get a wide enough view around your rolling trash dumpster on wheels. .
What about Mercedes Benz owners who think they are all high class
They are high class, especially in an A Class 😆.
One of my teachers is a Prius hype man. All the same things u said. Lmfao!
But those toyota siennas are faster than half the cars on the road😂 its like 7 second 0-60
Oddest does like 6.0 sec to 60 faster than a golf gti lol
My friend calls them the Toyota Pious.
Many years ago there was a book on this subject called “Is your Volkswagen a sex symbol?” I wonder what an updated version would say now. The drivers that frustrate me the most are those who drive the monster SUVs like a Suburban or Escalade with no additional passengers. The often cut people off or bully other drivers.
Bro hummers are only a show....what a show off😂😂😂

I live in a pretty wealth area, and I went down to the gas station near my house. As I parked my car at the gas pump, a black 1960's ferrari 250 gto pulled up in front of me to get gas. Nothing says your rich than pulling up to a gas station with a car worth more than the gas station and all the cars at it lmao.
