Hmmmm...I don't hit the accelerator nearly as much as I used to when I was driving sports cars, for a few reasons. First, 90 or 100 MPH in a truck just doesn't give me the same thrill it did in a Vette. Second, I always feel like when I'm trying to outrun someone in a big ole' 4X4, people are usually having a laugh at my expense (after all, my truck was made for climbin'). Third, when I step on it, I feel like I can almost SEE the needle on the gas gauge drop...and at $1.50 a gallon, well, you could say I'm getting cheap at the ripe old age of 40!!!!

Now...if I had a Lightning...I'd be comin' right up behind Claudia....with this demonic laugh....

I still drive to fast, but not as fast as I did in my 93 Lightning. I love the higher stance of the 4x4, and I love to look down on all the girls in cars, amazing what they do when they are all olone in a car.

WHY DON'T THE PICS IN MY PROFILE SHOW UP, UNLESS I EDIT THE POSTING?

Indigo, would that be to help or intimidate me???? If it was to intimidate me, I'd just flash a little flesh to distract ya, and then, STEP ON IT!! hehehehehehe

 

I'm more laid back, I don't feel like I have to race with others (RiceBurners). Since I'm sitting taller, I feel more in control. And with the weight of my truck and all I drive more intelligently (Well I try, God help me please, I try)

I'm a much more conservative driver in the truck. Haven't gotten a moving violation with any of my various F series over the past 13 years. My cars, on the other hand... 3 speeding tickets.

 

Claudia: Oh I'm a very helpful guy ya know...a real Boy Scout

Actually...I'd be hoping you'd flash me, and if I was driving a Lightning...I could catch up to ya and you could keep flashin' me over and over! *grinning*

 

i drive too fast and i wish i could slow down. for some reason i like to try to beat people across the intersection. and i need to be more careful on the interstates b/c there are a lot more cars faster than my v6 and i'm sitting there trying to be faster than them.
hopefully when mom gets a 2000 mustang GT convertible I'll drive it sanely, not! oh man, i can't wait till we get one of those. i'll be making her drive my truck all the time then.
and for those who stay under 2000 rpms...how do you do it? i have to get up to about 3000 to get anywhere, don't like holding up traffic.

 

INDI: (may I call you Indi?) You got it Babe! But only if you drive a STICKSHIFT! :Þ

'But when we get behind closed doors,'
'then she lets her hair hang down,'
'and she makes me glad that I'm a man,'
''cause no one knows what goes on behind closed doors.'

Thought I'd better start singing so you two would know the rest of us are here.
