And I bet that he is also a vegan , and that he also talks like that to those who eat processed grain !
AKA , Meats eaters , like most of us !

In my 40+ years of life, the one thing that I have always found true is that if you go out looking for trouble, you're going to find it. In his posts, it's always the other person with the problem. I also believe he tends to embellish his stories versus giving us how things actually went down. In this most recent case, if I read it correctly, he put himself in a position where the protagonist could not shut the door of his car. Why would you do that?

I don't know rontammy, but he comes off as one of those guys who likes to hear himself talk. Usually, I just pass over threads like these without comment, but today I decided to reply. No particular vendetta or agenda on my part.

He took his time to make his points. Then he heard my side of the story. The more time passes the more comical it seems.

Man, you need to realize that Rontammy lives in Canada. The further north you go, the more rude people get. They get all grouchy being locked indoors all winter. I've no doubt that he does have to put up with a bunch of loud mouths. He's a good guy and he drives a nice car. He handled the situation correctly. Plus, Rontammy always helps everyone out on this forum. He does his best to give good info if someone is stuck. Once more, a real good guy. You're from Nashville... I expect more from a fellow Southerner! Take it easy ..

I would rock a Prius myself if it of course had a nice engine in it and looked like this.

I would have asked that stupid slag abut the eviormental impact of the strip mining needed to procure the rare earth minerals needed for the battery in her Prius. Then again probably would have been way over her head, stupid uniformed sheeple.

Even the Prius owners try to harass us Volt owners too. I find it comical like they are king of the green environment or so.

when people tell me my car is "illegal" I tell them, "go call a cop"

the one time someone actually did the cop gave them a ticket for not having a front license plate and tinted side windows, and complemented me on my ride..

people suck.. I don't have time for them so I tend to ignore them..

Lol
The Volt is a cool car, as far as green cars go it's one I really like. The caddy based on the volt is damn sexy too.
Maybe Prius owners are upset because your green car actually looks like a nice car and theirs looks like a rolling tampon.

Thanks for the kind words....there are good people eveywhere...plenty good folks like yourself right here on camaro 5. Sometimes people are misunderstood in text form. Simple explanations usually clear things up. I see he has visited my fan page .

Prostock time, wound up the 302 to 4500RPM and kept it there for a minute. Light turned green and I did a smoke show. I do have to admit a car with zero emissions and a big Holley 780 will fumigate you! I just threw in some tire smoke for extra effect! See Ya...
This is the best thing to do. People tell strangers what they dont like about them and expect everything is gonna go well. You never know who you are talking to. You could have been the violent type and break his face for that.

How important it is to complain about a noisy truck for you? Well If you wanna take the risk of telling everyone what you dont like about them you WILL end up in trouble one day or another, and you will deserve it IMO.

You did right OP. This guy acted childish. Hes lucky he didnt get hurt.

Only 1 person in 10 years complained with my modified LS and it was an unemployed fat bitch. More than a 1000 persons told me how badass it was.

Very good points..I just dont see the reasoning behind it. At the end of the conversation nothing at all has changed.
