I wasn't driving fast or anything just crusing around whit my wife and little cuzzin,
😔

Woah you are 18 and have a wife? Crazy early marriage? Anyway not my buisness :P That is cool that you are though!

But honestly, if this happened to you, and he really actually went off on you super hard core and badly, and really said some foul shit...I suggest next time GET his plates, pull over ASAP. Call the police and tell them the individuals description and car details, and tell them he is displaying massive road rage symptoms WHICH HE WAS!

Tell them he is acting erratically, irrationally, with road rage like behavior that is upsetting other drivers, and is dangerous to have on the road. Trust me his day will get a lot better after that.

People like this need to get the **** off the roads. Respect each other...we evolved for millions of years to get to were we are. ACT LIKE IT. lol anyway no more rant.

the thing is, many (and I'm in no way referring to the OP) of these kids with 30-50k cars haven't accomplished anything other than to have successful parents. the current crop is by far the most spoiled, pampered bunch this country has ever seen.

I'm not justifying the old dude, but I think that's probably where he's coming from.

to the OP.. you are going have to expect things like this to happen through out your life. For what ever reason he went OFF on you, its his problem not yours. don't get drawn into his world... its not worth it. He was expressing how miserable he is in his own life.

+1 I am from this bunch but I am NOT spoiled, I work hard for everything I own. But it pisses me off a ton when I see kids as young as 10 with iphones and that crap...like seriously...

I'm not convinced that some of the events described in this thread actually happened, at least the way they are described. You're sitting at a light, and a guy you've never had any kind of contact with in any way pulls up and starts screaming, cursing, and making personal remarks at you? I don't buy it. People don't just expend energy like that for no reason....and "they guy is just a jerk" is not a reason.

Hence the reply I gave a few replies up. This guy - if this event transpired the way it is written here - is a huge threat to being on the road. Imagine what he would do if he got out of the car...if he is already yelling and swearing from inside it.

My parents helped me with my first car. None of us knows your situation, so just ignore the idiot that said that and drive your car with pride.

Like they say "if you got, it flaunt it."

I have noticed older guys (some, not all) losing it as they get older for what ever reason. I guess they wish they could be 21 again and are going through a middle aged crisis. Just ignore them. They might be in the looney bin in a few months anyway, LOL.

Being an "old fart" I bet you had some awesome cars that would make people jealous back in the day tho!!!!

Next time put it in nuetral let it growl!!! Then light the tires up!!!

For the most part, people presume that if a real young guy has a car like a Camaro, it is because daddy gave it to him. He did not earn it. Therefore...they get pissed and go off on them.

I am not that old fart, but I had some great cars in high school. My father was a Chrysler executive, and got 2 lease cars each year. Top of the line Barracudas and Chargers. In addition, each night he would pick a car off the assembly line and bring it home. He gave me the keys and said drive the hell out of it for the night. Part of the quality control testing they did. (It really was) Usually they had 440's in them. Lots of fun, but it sure pissed off the other kids my age with their 6 banger Chevy II's.

[djxrated81]

Never had anyone talk sh*t to me but i do love the reaction of the guys that pull up to me at a light with a minivan and checking out the SS then look straight and slump their head, as to say "i suck" That really makes me feel good and young

[davidcroft]

I feel very bad.
The 20 year old kid across the street from me bought the two-story house (mine is a 1 story), he bought his SS before me (2SS orange on orange on 21s), and he got his LT's before me. He has an awesome job and isn't spoiled by his parents which I respect!

[gramps_green_rs]

I'm an old fart too(57). just ignore him.
