That’s it...it’s time to play G.O.T.O.S.

they know a profit center when they see one…

When you only get one point (behind the mandatory RTT, of course). Choose carefully.

does aerodynamic accessories count as g.o.t.o.s.?

I drive 50 miles a day through Salt Lake and back up and down I15. I see some pretty cool vehicles. And I remember this thread as soon as they are out of picture range. Mainly because I’m trying not to be killed by our fine drivers.

Limited experience there, but:

SLC drivers seem super passive-aggressive.
If the speed limit was 65, everyone did 67 right up the ass of whoever was in front of them.

Nobody does 67 in a 65 in SLC

[Buster Highmen]

80 seems more the Wasatch front norm.

But what makes me wonder is how fast are the people going that get pulled over?

[Buzzworthy]

I commute at 80 and I’m passed a lot. Some of these guys have to be in triple digits.

[pfluffenmeister]

Fair enough.
I was grandpa driving in my van and only saw a couple of serious speeders.

Normally I am a spirited driver.

They're known as Utards up this way. Consistently the worst tourist drivers around...and that includes Texas plates. Some are flat out dangerous but most seem incredibly oblivious to their surroundings, fellow motorists, stop signs, pedestrians, etc. The Utah 'Necks are a special breed. Diesel bros who roll coal on 16" wide tires in a 25mph tourist town loaded with pedestrians and kids. Nine Line or die!

No offense to you Utah motorists or anything.

They do haul ass. And maybe I'm lucky but I don't see much real traffic.

A common thing I'm sorry, but how the fuck does someone go through life, driving a car, all over the goddamn earth, and never uses a turn signal? Blows my mind. Also, people who drive with one foot on the brake so their brake light is always on. How have they not been eliminated from the herd yet?

The turn signal thing is wild to me. I've never understood why it's so fucking hard to use one.

Two footed driving is actually safer and it's how pros are trained to drive. That said, the left is not supposed to actually rest on the brake pedal.

You’re not wrong, but posting from Idaho is like living in a glass house in this case. I drive Ogden to Driggs a lot and it’s like two different flavors of bad drivers. I think drivers from Idaho Falls think there is a special reward for who can drive the furthest, slowest in the fast lane or something, usually while the right lane is totally empty.

And the worst thing about Utah drivers? Assume that anything you do will offend them greatly and lead to them road raging and attempting to kill everyone around them. If they are driving one of the lifted diesel bro type trucks it’s a 10x multiplier.

I have actually noted the slow driver thing in Eastern Idaho, driving from Dubois to Bozone. It's a real phenomenon. We should do a study. Boise, on the other hand, feels like a mini SLC. Fast, furious and aggressive.

I drive up and down i15 a couple days a week, and guess there is an accident, traffic is moving at 85-90. Nobody goes 65 in a 65.

[MarsB]

Since we are bagging on Utah drivers, I had never in 30+ years of driving seen the "stopped with left turn signal on, then make a right turn" move. In the last 7 years I have now seen this at least a half dozen times.

Is it even camping if you don't bring your cornhole boards?



Then there's..... whatever this is



I forgot to take a picture of the absolute GOTOS monstrosity of a side by side that the local powersports center had out front. Fully enclosed cab, 5 seats, RTT, you name it. I'm sure it cost at least $50k

[heckacali]

I really don't understand the sxs thing when you get the big expensive ones that cost as much as a real rig, it's like big $ wave runners that cost as much as a boat and have 1/10 the utility.

[m2711c]

geo tracker > sxs by alot…

[heckacali]

Do sxs have alternator belts?

Trackers, Jimnys, and Samurai are just fancy road legal sxs. And I totally would prefer a Tracker, Samurai, or Jimny.
