I know exactly what you mean by that... I think.

I want to be an asshat driver. Is there a school I can attend to get my asshat drivers license?

School? Haven't you been reading this tread?

Just buy a WRX and you instantly become an asshat driver.

Oh, I thought an asshat driver drove asshats around. I guess since I live so close to DC I could just get my limo drivers license and accomplish that task....

Not quite sure how I got owned as Roo basically said the same thing that for his liking wrx's push a bit much.

I haven't read any motoring press stuff in a long time, but nice drop as to what industry Roo is in. I'm sure I can't compare, but I've had two E30's and lot's of seat time to know when a car pushes ...

But, I drive a wrx on the road and so I'm an asshat driver ... thank you very much.

What YoEddy doesn't realize is this board is Subaru central. I think he was just commenting that WRX is an economy performance car and that is why the asshats are everywhere in them. Affordability and some nice pull, with AWD grip that makes youg drivers feel like god until they ride the gas too far into a turn and plow into a tree, makes for a bad combination in the wrong hands.

I don't think he was trying to compare it to something nicer until he got called out.

while you busily assume that the Bush Admin culo-sombreros are limousined around by limo drivers,

you might want to brush up on the role of the US Secret Service and the gargantuan armored Suburbans they use.

The wife drives a VW asshat wagon. I don't like it much -- automatic with too much turbo lag.

**dubu** · 02-07-2006, 10:57 AM

personally I feel that the auid a4 01 vintage, 1.8 turbo with a manual is a far better car than the wrx.. they drive sooo much better, and their awd system is better too.. so are the brakes,

[flame suit on]

How much do they cost?

Pretty much sums it up, thanks.

Now I must go work on my communication skills ...

Ain't so much the cost of getting them out of the showroom that will kill you as the cost of getting them out of the service dept.

Please learn to just chill, you're only making the backups worse with your asshat agressive driving and changing lanes 25 times in 3 miles got you exactly....3 cars FURTHER BEHIND me.

Thank you for allowing me to vent a bit.

Dude! Driving to Summit this week there were sooooo many fucksticks passing in the right lane. For Fuck's Sake Man!

Didn't you know the right lane is the passing lane in CO.

I'm not sure how your response relates to Lemon's post though. Are you mad that people pass in the right lane?

Oh I know all about those, especially when I tried to pass a Madaline Albright convoy on the way to Dulles. The SS guys weren't too happy with me.

I just saw the words "dumb fuckers" so I quoted it. I don't think passing in the right lane is the way to go. These people then try to shoehorn their way into the left lane among all the people who are patiently waiting or driving slowly. I think that is one of the multiple definitions of "ASS HAT"!

Patiently waiting? I define it as camping out in the left lane. Why are they driving slowly in the left lane anyway? I don't see anything wrong with passing in the right lane because it's usually always open and why not take advantage. I am that "ASS HAT"

**Mybad!** · 02-07-2006, 11:19 AM

I should be more clear. I have no problem with passing in the right lane when traffic is flowing and, another definition of asshat, someone is driving like molases in January (use oldtimey accent there) in the left. I do it all the time. But when we are all waiting and some dick starts to play the leapfrog and let me in game then I start to get pissed, as well as others; I have seen the silhouettes of their middle fingers more than a few times.

Playing leapfrog when traffic is going 10 mph doesn't make any sense. You won't reach Denver or where ever you are going any faster. So I agree with you.

**dubu** · 02-07-2006, 11:27 AM

What really pisses me off is that people do not pass here, it sucks basically you get some fuctard going 20mph and a line of about 20 to 30 more fucktards will form behind, thus no one is able being able to pass, retarded.

Cops really should start to enforce the rule that if you have more then 5 cars behind you must pull over. As a matter a fact they should pull over the next two people stuck behind the guy for not passing ( if the opportunity was there).

This is where I agree with you and passing in the right is warranted.
