Re: Why do you drive your truck?

To me there is nothing more satisfying than pulling up in my heavy pig at a light, looking over at a light unsuspecting sports car while he thinks he's got it the whole time, and then leaving him where he's sitting. Then him pulling up at the next light with his tail tucked between his legs and realizing that he never even had a chance, PRICELESS!!!!

Yes!

Earlier this summer I was at a light on a 4 laner, and was a couple of cars behind and to the right of a "new" Moostang GT. He was the first car in the left lane at the light. Light goes green and as traffic picked up speed, I swung in behind the Ferd. He saw me swing in, and gunned it a bit. I kept pace with him... we passed a few cars on our right and he nailed it. I slipped back to the right lane and started to pull around him. Gotta admit, that pony was fast... I stayed on his right front fender and couldn't get around him. But the look of sheer shock and amazement on his face that a 4,000 pound green hulk was pacing his "muscle car".

I was all smiles... still makes me smile to this day.
