I hate this @*&%%! slow car!!
I'm gettin rid of this slow as# car!!
On the way home from work today, I got dusted and run onto the shoulder by a woman in a mini-van with butterflies and a soccer ball on it. She was drivin on my back bumper for about 4 miles. I was doing 80. After a while the traffic backed up and slowed down. She moved over to pass me to get to the off ramp before me I downshifted and floored it. she passed me right up and gave me a *****y smirk!! I cant take it any more! I think its time to drop one of my BigBlock Chevys into it.
