Is it just me, or do Dodge drivers seem to be leadfoots? I am not into into the whole Chevy and Dodge suck thing, but I may be baised towards Ford a little. It just seems every Dodge Ram or Dakota out there gets up my a$$ and up the A$$e$ of other drivers on the road. Additionally, before I bought my F150, i test drove a dakota. One of the things the salesman told me to do was "stomp on it!'. I did, it was not fast (possibly because I was coming from a turbo). My point is, pickup trucks aren't supposed to be fast (aside from the Lightning, Typhoon, etc). My freind at work has a Ram and I've always thought he drove it too fast. What is it with Dodge owners? Am I alone in this? BTW, no I am not some old geezer.

 

With all due respect, maybe the big grille gives them a complex?

 

they are running away from the hair receeding monsters that steal hair!


ever notice that Dodge owners tend to be on the bald side?

and short and stubby?

instead of platform shoes they buy a 2wd with a 6" factory installed lift kit.

 

I have noticed it at times that people driving Dodge’s or Chevy’s like to draft off the turbulence of my tailgate, as if we were on a Winston Cup track somewhere. I mean doing 80mph and someone wants to increase their fuel efficiency by drafting me HELL NO little bald buddy…


01 LOVES to tap the brakes, man is that some funny chit watching them FREAK OUT. You see the thing some of these morons don’t realize is 01 would like to buy a Lightning and, well hell, if they would like to contribute to the fund then excellent….

 

Yep.
Buried in another thread is a post by me mentioning it:

I like to look at the vehicals parked outside a store, then go in and match them to the owners. I am usually right, but it isn't always about bling. I take the attributes of the vehical, the condition, and the type of modifications, if any, and key them in to the personality type.
You can do this yourself starting with Dodge Trucks (the easiest). If you see one outside a store, go in and look for a guy with no neck, then watch as he leaves and gets in the dodge. Amazingly enough, 9 out of 10 female dodge drivers will also have no neck. Don't ask me why.
Here are others I've noticed:
Add ons (wheels and bling) that cost more than the car is worth = bad case of priorities and money management. "Pig in a silk suit" syndrome. This person would rather buy your respect, than earn it. Often lives in a crappy house with a 48" screen TV.
A nicely kept older car in good condition = not wasteful. Uses stuff til it wears out, which it never does, because he takes care of it.
A nicely kept older car in poor condition = not wasteful and not rich. Takes pride in what he's got, and takes car of it regardless of it's percieved value.
A nicely kept newer car = Has money, and knows the value of things - or he's ****. Could be both.
A poorly kept newer car = "ride em hard and put em up wet" syndrome. Every thing is disposable.
Poorly kept older car = broke, and accepts his lower position because he feels it is useless to try and get ahead.

 

01, here is a little trick a Hell's Angel taught me (like these guys need to be defensive drivers) ...

instead of slamming on the brakes, tap you 4 way hazards on and off once... buddy behind will think you are hitting the brake, meanwhile you have maintained speed the whole time.

They drop right off your butt... and usually cant figure out what you are doing (brakes on but going same speed)

Dodge drivers never figure it out
Chevy drivers usually do after 10 minutes or so and then just pass you.
Tundra drivers just complain that its poor American electrics in the light assembly

 

I hear you. When I actually "tap" or lightly, barely touching the brakes, I always maintain my speed, then sometimes I speed up a bit and then let off, to let the truck coast down in speed. Pisses the mommy's boy right off...

 

Sounds like 01 has taken a cue from Bob Dole. He too refers to himself in the third person. Git yerself a pencil 01!

I dont differentiate drivers by what they are driving. They all suck when they are cruising down the pike while simultaneously eating breakfast, reading the paper, and yappin on the cell phone.

Here's a funny that I clipped from another post:

BASIC RULES FOR DRIVING IN NEW JERSEY
1. Turn signals will give away your next move. A real New Jersey driver never uses them.



2. Under no circumstance should you leave a safe distance between
you and the car in front of you, or the space will be filled in by somebody else, putting you in an even more dangerous situation.

3. The faster you drive through a red light, the smaller the
chance you have of getting hit.

4. Never, ever come to a complete stop at a stop sign. No one
expects it and it will result in you being rear-ended.

5. Never get in the way of an older car that needs extensive
bodywork. New Jersey is a no-fault insurance state and the other guy doesn't have anything to lose.

6. Braking is to be done as hard and late as possible to ensure
that your ABS kicks in, giving a nice, relaxing foot massage as the brake pedal pulsates. For those of you without ABS, it's a chance to stretch your legs.

7. Never pass on the left when you can pass on the right. It's a
good way to scare people entering the highway.

8. Speed limits are arbitrary figures, given only as a suggestion
and are apparently not enforceable in New Jersey during rush hour.

9. Just because you're in the left lane and have no room to speed
up or move over doesn't mean that a New Jersey driver flashing his high beams behind you doesn't think he can go faster in your spot.

10. Always slow down and rubberneck when you see an accident or even someone changing a tire.

11. Learn to swerve abruptly. New Jersey is the home of the
high-speed slalom driving thanks to the State Highway Department, which puts pot-holes in key locations to test drivers' reflexes and keep them on their toes.

12. It is traditional in New Jersey to honk your horn at cars
that don't move the instant the light turns green.

13. Remember that the goal of every New Jersey driver is to get
there first by whatever means necessary.

14. In the New Jersey area, 'flipping someone the bird' is
considered a polite New Jersey salute. This gesture should always be returned.

THANK YOU & HAVE A SAFE JOURNEY!

 

I've seen the same thing listed out for Minnesota. Believe me, it applies there, too! And in Milwaukee, where I live now, for that matter!

 

St. Louis in particular, are the meanest drivers in the nation. You better come ready if you want to come at all. Missouri has the 2nd sh1ttiest roads in the states, which doesn't help, plus they have been doing highway construction for about the last twenty years or so. Its really got the drivers here in MO hypertensive.

 

Monday Monday Monday, driving right up your a** in a Hemi Powered Dodge Ram

 

As one of my experiences goes.

With my friend andrew in his s-10 during a storm.

Me: This thing got ABS?
Andrew: Lets find out!
Me: OH ****!!!!!!!!!


Good thing we were in a neighborhood.

His rear fish tailed and we skidded into a small ditch. The ABS did kick in but he doesn't know how to steer in a straight line. No harm done though he got out of the ditch fairly easy.

 

Lmfao! Hahahahahaha! I saw that commercial too.

Sunday! Sunday! Goin' fishin' in a Hemi Powered Dodge Ram!

 

You cant be serious that dodge drivers are simply all aggressive? Keep up or move over!

 

wow.... really went back to dust this one off!
