Whats the difference between Escalade drivers and porcupines?

With the Escalade, the retard fuckheads are on the inside.

The city is repaving the road in front of my office, and on my way to work this morning I slowed down so I didnt hit the 3" ledge where they removed the old road, and the ****** behind me in the Escalade runs up on my ass lays on his horn.

Yea fuckface, its my fault your a shitty driver and almost hit me. Honk at me.

As I was stopped, waiting to turn into work, they drive past me blasting the horn at me again.

FUCK. I want to murder people.

I can understand your frustration. But it's okay mate, at the end of the day you're driving a beautiful 3 with some gorgeous BBS LM's.

i totally take his side. you know to slow down to 5mph, then pick it back up to 30 probably cost him 3 gallons of fuel.

your slowing down cost him $15!

I suspect the OP slammed on his brakes and caught the other driver off guard. I see this all the time.

A 3 series will disintegrate on a rough road.

Nope, didnt slam on the brakes, i knew the cliff edge was comming and slowed down gradually.

Even if I did slam on the brakes, so what? Pay attention and stay off my ass and it wont be a problem.

i agree w/ the OP. even if he slammed on his brakes, the Escalade should have maintained a safe following distance (what if the OP had to slam on the brakes because of an emergency?)


its too bad that shitheads driving those things arent' forced to take basic physics or kinematics...

You shoulda just stopped in the road when he layed on the horn. I have to do that here in Gainesville cuz the roads suck major ass and they're constantly repairing, and they have those 3" ledges everywhere (I hit pretty much all of em the first time driving through, front right tire got busted and now has a leak). And yeah, people can be bitches behind you, so I just slow to like 5mph when they do that and speed off after that.

Always make sure to smile and wave when they look at you.

agreed, haha. even if he tried to pass you, he couldn't. The 335 could accelerate faster.

The only problem is your leading to escalation. I usually value my car too much to try to pull a brake check.

I was already borderline late for work and didnt feel like bothering with it.

But that is my typical course of action; the satisfaction of holding up the self important jerkoff that much longer is almost worth the frustration.

The worst is when you're following a friend and he decides to be an asshole at a traffic light and he stops until it turns yellow for a while and then goes.

It's happened a couple of times. lol

LMAO! Guess our friends are pretty similar.

In high school we use to bump each other at stop lights.

This joke does not make any sense. The joke is: "With the Escalade, the pricks are on the inside."
