Saw an interesting sticker this morning...

as I was driving to work in my "import" economy vehicle (well, actually my wife's import economy vehicle. She's driving my import economy vehicle today), I pulled up next to an older Suburban with the following on his back window.

"Imports are like tampons. Every ***** needs one"

But I'm curious was he referring to my Honda, or the clothing he was wearing, or the food he eats, or the toys he buys for his children, or the TV he watches NASCAR on, or the guy that mows his lawn, or the tooth paste he should be brushing his tooth with, or more than likely the tampons he was referring too...?

Just curious, and yes, I know I'm starting another buy American flame war... sorry...

I think what the guy was trying to say through his sticker is that he doesnt like "hooked up" imports.

Oh, so it wasn't our stock-other-than-a-few-convenience-mods Hondas?

Good, 'cause I like getting nearly 40 mpg... I just wish they could make a full size truck do that without any extra batteries...

I have a "Rock Crusher" sticker in the back window of my Ranger, not because the sick 22 year old 110hp when new V-6 has a hope against a typical Chevy. I just put it there to tease my a few of my relatives who are big GM fans, nothing bigger to the plot than that. Some people really like to dig too deep into things.

There is probably a thread on a Chevy forum somewhere about some idiot that thinks his old rusty Ranger blowing blue smoke is better than any Chevy.

You get mad he passes judgement on your vehicle of choice so you come online and call him a toothless redneck. Then you step it up and decide you know what his daily menu is and where he buys his clothing. Since when did supporting America become a crime?

I think closer9 was saying that almost everything the guy uses is "imported".

Whoa! I just realized I agreed with a very rational Daveg99 post.

Way to go, man!
