and laughing my ass off

 

I remember that "road test" and it proved to me how much BS road test magazines throw out.

I knew I wasn't the only one who wanted chrome slacks.

Just the picture of someone trying to load a horse into one of those made me laugh my a$$ off. Anybody who has ever hauled a horse is thinking what idiots they are for even thinking it!

[FlatBlack]

Quality!

 

It's a joke, guys

[Chaparral2f]

Seems like a perfectly accurate article to me.

[bjhines]

Yea.. There is no BS in that article at all. The vehicle should have been a bad joke but they actually made them.

 

I have only seen one male driving one, I gave that guy the 3rd degree because he parked it in a handicapped space and walked into Starbucks while talking on his PDA phone in his pinstriped suit. I wore him out about his joke of a painted fingernail, wannabe truck, with the ghetto bling, and shitty reputation for poor quality and poor performance. Then I wore him out about how he was obviously mentally handicapped due to his handicapped parking space and choice of vehicle. Then I went on about his girly fingernails and coiffed hair and the bird crap on his shoulder. He actually looked at his shoulder, then I wore him out about how insecure he must feel right now and how his vehicle exclaims his need for a viagra prescription. Dude left without buying anything and I went home smiling.

bjhines - Good for you! I harrass the **** out of A-holes who park in handicap spaces without stickers. They are truly the scum of the earth.

Hahaha, that's what I thought too. I'm surprised that nobody got hurt trying to do that, the horse does not look happy!

For the longest time I had an "Abled" sticker in my window hung from the rearview mirror. Looked like the handicap sticker, but was the same stickdude running with 'fast' lines behind him. "ABLED PARKING" is what it said.

 

I got so much grief from the Customs guys in Otay Mesa, they just didn't get it. One was all serious "which one of you is Handicapped?" Really on the ball with his reading, eh? I even let him READ it and it took him much longer than it should have to 'get' that it was NOT a handicap sticker, but really something that entitled me to park anywhere else because I didn't have hangnails, rump rash, etc... and 'needed' to park close to the dog grooming salon's entrance.
