Really odd conversation I just had...

Sitting at a light, coming home, ford f350 pulls up next to me and asks me to roll down the window......
He sits there a second..

Him: "That's a nice Mercedes"

At this point.. well.. I'm probably being played with...

Me: "thanks, but it's a BMW"
Him: "No it ain't."

Shocking...
Me: "No, really, it's a BMW"
Him: "What does that mean?"

At that point, the light turned green and I just left.

So... yea.... I realize Texas is full of all types of people, but this one takes the cake even more than a guy telling me my RX-8 was a Supra, and his favorite car.

Typical Texan messing with ya.

A lot of the big truck driven (tough guys) like to pick on people with BMW's ...Benz ect. Call it security issues. lol Just visit the web site DFWStangs.net and you will see a whole site full of them. Some of the rudest on the planet. Pretty entertaining though... lol!

LoL, at a gas station I had a guy get out of his vette wlak over & ask how I liked my Z06, only problem is I have Viper, oh my top was down, convertible Z06, hmm, enthusiast fail. Letting him know I love the Z06, but this is a Viper could only be descried as awkward.

Oh & if a guy in F350 says you have a mercedes, just say OK, cause he probably has a gun rack in there too.

I was far too shocked by the "no it ain't" comment to make a comeback...

the same guy was playing music with his horn before he pulled up to the light..

Hmm... willing to bet he had a 12 gauge with him too... maybe it's a good think that you drove off.
