F@%$&% Ricers!
Definition of a ricer: An obnoxious idiot who thinks his blinged out (slow) economy car is fast. Therefore puts on a crappy sounding muffler, stupidly tinted lights that serves no purpose other than to bring attention to their "sporty" farty econobox special. And top of all this, driving like an aggressive idiot with no regard for safety or how idiotic he looks. Yeah I had a run in with these "special" types on the freeway today. I'm going just above the speed limit at 73 mph. I switched lanes after my signal was on for 3-4 seconds and he was a good 6-7 car lengths behind in the other lane but I guess I wasn't going fast enough for him as he was going way above the speed limit (probably 85+) and the car on front of me was going way below the speed limit (about 45 mph in a 70 mph zone). When I checked my mirrors I had plenty of room to switch. Yeah so, I made you slow down to a legal speed after plenty of warning and you get ticked off at me. Then further aggravate the situation by tailgating me and flashing your blingy, obnoxiously over-bright lights at me.
Jeez, a "special" kind of stupid are you? ...
I Really wished I had the duster, I would've embarrassed him. As he barely edged me in my 215000 mile, tired old Silverado K2500. I switched lanes and slowed down to 60, I then gunned it when he tried to pass me. He barely rolled passed me. I let off at 80 but by that point he was barely a car length ahead of me. Against a 190hp 5500lbs 4x4 barn door? Pretty pathetic...:banghead:
Ok, rant over.
