: Cars you know.....
SebJr Jun 27th, 07, 8:11 PM once your behind them on a back road.... your screwed !There must be certain cars that attract certain types of drivers.
I know I'm probably a little more impatient then most and more aggressive...but there's certain cars that when I see them coming up in front of me I know I'll be slowing down much more than I want to.
I'll start with two
Any Subaru wagon or a Buick Century ;)
Derek69SS Jun 27th, 07, 8:19 PM Any car with Iowa license plates. :D
Gray Buicks are also incredibly slow.
Byfield Jun 27th, 07, 8:20 PM Any Buick/Caddy/Lincoln made in the last 20 years
OutCast Jun 27th, 07, 8:35 PM Anything with a box of tissue in the back window.
Skeeveman Jun 27th, 07, 8:46 PM Any Buick/Caddy/Lincoln made in the last 20 years Obviously you haven't gotten behind me in my daily driver, lol... or if you did, it wouldn't be for long! I drive a '99 Buick Regal GS
Anything with a box of tissue in the back window.
Awesome answer!
Don't forget any vehicle with the "proud parent of an honor student" stickers plastered all over it...
SethT Jun 27th, 07, 8:55 PM CHevy lumina needs to be added to the list.
Cars I know that will piss me off when I see themin the rear view:
SAAB
Something about saab drivers. They always get right on my bumper...then get blasted with soot when I stomp on the Duramax!:)
Zilmo Jun 27th, 07, 9:05 PM Olds 98. Can't forget those.
BlueSS454 Jun 27th, 07, 9:23 PM On my way to CB 07, every single slowsky I got behind was driving some variation of a Ford. I'm not making this up either just to bash a Ford. When I say I got stuck behind every Ford driving slowsky in the world, I mean it. It took me a whole 10 minutes on the way to CB07 to start cursing at someone driving a Ford. I have no patience for those doing less than the speed limit and especially those that take FOREVER to accelerate to the speed limit.
ToocoolZ28 Jun 27th, 07, 9:28 PM Any brand of mini van or older Ford trucks, No joking.
Ron
Dale Eikmeier Jun 27th, 07, 10:03 PM Buicks without a doubt. There must be some GM marketing strategy that targets the over 70+ age group with special emphasis on women.
Klamath Jun 27th, 07, 10:53 PM BUICKS!
Especially if the driver is wearing one of those old timey dress hats.
csmnlm Jun 27th, 07, 10:59 PM Any brand of mini van
Ron
I take offience to that remark:D I drive a mini van.
My wife drives the chevelle.
Ricks70ss Jun 27th, 07, 11:09 PM real men don't drive mini vans ha ha ha ha
Andy69 Jun 27th, 07, 11:11 PM Volvo
Andy69 Jun 27th, 07, 11:11 PM real men don't drive mini vans ha ha ha ha
I'll arm wrestle your ass any time, chump ;)
Derek69SS Jun 27th, 07, 11:47 PM I'll arm wrestle your ass any time, chump ;)Dude, you need a station wagon ;)
LMacdonald Jun 27th, 07, 11:51 PM There is one sure sign you are in trouble... the old guy in front of you is wearing a hat...
and please do not honk... it is likely me in front of you....
BTW - I just bought a bumper sticker "I may be slow..but I am in front of you"
that out to tick you off.
Cam Jun 28th, 07, 12:06 AM There is one sure sign you are in trouble... the old guy in front of you is wearing a hat... .
That is so true! Probably driving a FWD Buick Century too!
Not all old people in Buicks have forgotten where the accelerator is. Once many decades ago I had a bored and misguided friend who decided he was going to pretend to get hit by a passing car while walking home from school. As a '72 Buick Skylark drove past with a white-haired elderly woman behind the wheel, my friend walked out onto the road and tapped the rear fender with his hand, just enough to make a muted sound. He then crumpled onto the shoulder as if he had been hit. The woman stopped, looked in her rearview mirror, then stomped on the gas. I saw blue tiresmoke rolling out of the rear fenderwells! I never saw her again.
Phil Keller Jun 28th, 07, 12:13 AM the old guy in front of you is wearing a hat...
You might as well pull over and park.

The blue-haired-old-bat probably just stole the car from her mother after a 3 martini quilting bee. :beers:

thunderstruck507 Jun 28th, 07, 2:36 AM mustangs?
Twins Fan Jun 28th, 07, 3:52 AM About 80% of the cars on the road here, I don't even pay attention to the make of the car, just try and get in the lane that's open.
The Denver metro area has the kings and queens of the casual take off from stop lights, it's enough to make you want to rip your hair out.
thepoz68 Jun 28th, 07, 5:32 AM Black And White Crown Vics...
Andy69 Jun 28th, 07, 5:58 AM Dude, you need a station wagon ;)
you're gonna WANT a minivan after that kid comes along :)
70_Malibu Jun 28th, 07, 8:10 AM Black And White Crown Vics...
Cool! Someone said it! ANY Crown Vic, barring the cop cars.
Also anyone whose head you can't see above the headrest.
Byfield Jun 28th, 07, 9:28 AM Cool! Someone said it! ANY Crown Vic, barring the cop cars.
No Doubt - around here if you see a cop car in your mirror, get the hell out of the way
I'm convinced that in Dane County the 3 most dangerous drivers are behind the wheels of Grand Ams, Crown Vics, and Madison Metro Busses
Skier_Bob Jun 28th, 07, 9:57 AM just call the minivan the urban assault vehicle to make it more manly!!
ssal396 Jun 28th, 07, 10:13 AM Ok, I'm going to climb out on a limb here......... Almost every late model Corvette..... I can't tell you how many times I get behind these cars with my Yucon and I'm pushing them to do the speed limit...
Why bother buying a performance car??
72 malibu Jun 28th, 07, 11:29 AM Because you look cool -does not mean you know what a gas pedal is.
SebJr Jun 28th, 07, 12:00 PM mustangs?

chevelledude71 Jun 28th, 07, 7:36 PM :noway:
Ditto the head shaking...
surmin69 Jun 28th, 07, 9:03 PM The newer VW bugs, love the flower holder on the dash :noway:
sugarhighperformance Jun 28th, 07, 11:39 PM speed limit on the Island is 55. Try to do that. People do 90 in the right lane just to keep up with the flow of traffic. so, any car doing less is slow. The Island is a dead end, if you hit the end (Montauk) turn around or go into the Atlantic! We have something here called...now what was it....um....oh yeah...ROAD RAGE! So my answer is, any car in the Hamptons with an out of state plate (tourist site seeing at 10 mph):thumbsup:
Chris R Jun 29th, 07, 12:31 AM Around here. Suburu's are well known as being driven by women that well....um. Are of an alternative lifestyle if you know what I mean.
Lets just say, they are usually common with rainbow stickers on the back.

Lets just say, they are usually common with rainbow stickers on the back.Suburu went to a lot of expense to market their cars to the Alternative lifestyle. Another untapped demographic for sales.
