What Grinds you gears??

[JSFM35X]

I hate when people don't list their round about location.

Not street address or anything. Just a geographical area.

Sometimes its because someone wants to get help and sometimes its weather related.

Mini vans driving slow in the fast lane. Irritates the s..t out of me.

I get [ticked] off about bad driving, period. Every [individual] who's seen a Burt Reynolds movie thinks he/she knows how to drive.

You wouldn't have minded it back when I had the MPV I would've gotten out of your way had its 110mph governor (actually it kicked in at an indicated 112) been holding you up.

EDIT: Oops, I glossed over that "driving *SLOW* in the..." I'm still used to people making, uhm...incorrect assumptions about that vehicle. It was the Rodney Dangerfield of vehicles, drove me nuts the way people could misjudge my speed/cut me off/etc. Never had a vehicle that got so little respect, not even the Volvo wagons.

Mis-shifting really grinds my gears.

Or relying on their synchros too much. SO many cool cars end up for sale with fried 2nd gear synchronizers!

Stupid people

Shoddy work. Especially if they charged good $ for it.

When your garage door breaks as you're heading out to work and you have to spend 30 minutes trying to get it closed :wall

Never realized I hadn't posted my location. It's been so long that I registered I never really noticed. But I've updated my location, thanks JSFM. Oh, and I hate light rain a day after I detail!

Poor boat ramp etiquette.

Hey, some of these wouldn't have occurred to me!

 

[512detail]

but seriously..people who call my number and ask me if im that big drive through car wash with the spinning brushes

then they ask me who I recommend for details?

well, duh, me, you called me. lol

Evidence to my previous post...................

Seriously...don't get a black car, especially one that was painted by GM. Bought a black C7 and kept it for only 2 months before I traded it for blade silver. Under a drop light, the bottom of the front fenders were BROWN due to the thinness of the paint. Had a pro buff it for about 10 hours but couldn't get it 100%. Biggest mistake I ever made. My buddy has a black C7 and has to WASH it every time it's driven. You can't just wipe it down like silver or it will scratch. Only color you can actually scratch with your fingernail.

So lemme get this straight.............

The paint was so "thin" so you had a "pro buff it out for 10 hours"??????

Ronkh- Yikes man, you apparently frequent forums that'd simply drive me nuts...*SO* much of what you quoted is just...so....[you know ]

Angus- That would've really [ticked] me off!

 

[Ronkh]

As I said, I HATE stupid people

 

[donbeezy]

[Accumulator]

Yeah, I'd hate to see what that guy's silver paint's clearcoat looks like!

BUT- if ya hate 'em so much, *how* do you stand being on forums with 'em?!? I hardly ever visit any other forums any more as they just get me riled.

 

[Accumulator]

donbeezy- Our weather guy is so vague/ambiguous that he's hardly ever *really* wrong

 

[Mike lambert]

It's pristine! Garage kept, I usually do it myself but I don't have the time! 8 hours later it's pristine!

It's better than watching the kardashians.......... Only 2 places you can see such stupidity out of "successful" people. :rofl
