vroom vroom

So I was driving the yellow truck this evening, and one of my stops was the grocery store. Yeah, it's now a grocery gettter.

I parked out in the middle of the parking lot, and walked toward the store. As I was approaching the main drive, there was a riceburner stopped, letting the pasenger out. The passenger exited the vehicle, and the driver was ready to move on. Just as he started to move, I walked thru the approach in front of him, causing him to stop and wait. As I was directly in front of the riceburner, the driver revved the engine, like to intimidate me. I didnt even glance his way, but I did laugh out loud!

I can see you are out making friends, how nice. Are you looking into getting the coffee can exhaust and lowering your truck now, or the big sub behind the seat that makes the whole truck rattle?

Just remember these are the folks that will one day take over after we are gone, my lord we are in trouble.

I'm gonna have to fab up a couple of them coffee can exhaust tips for the helluvit. It'll be funny pulling up to the gearhead meet (at a local restaurant every summer Friday) with them things hanging out the back.

Yuban or Folgers? I'm thinking of Folgers simply cuz it's anodized red for that extra 10 HP.

Haha that's classic. I drive my f250 with headers to school every day and now this guy in my. Class has a 240z with a fart cannon exhaust on it. Looks and sounds like crap.lol Little rice car aka swap meet special. He is going to put 14k into easy which is a joke in itself haha. Anyways, we need more young guys driving classic fords instead of foreign junk or cars made by Obama motors as in gm/ Chevy
