I've loved my car for years but have actually only owned one for about two weeks now. I have noticed that I get LOTS of positive comments on the car but a few guys I work with now treat me different like I'm snobby to them or something along those lines, these are guys I have worked with for the last three years and now I can't even get a conversation out of them about the weather, it's just plain wierd to me....

They assume you're making more money than them.

#1, Muscle I'm with you, what's that all about & WHO is it aimed at. :nono:

Well,first time i saw it i looked at all posts and since it was right after my post,i figured for some reason it must be aimed at me. He hadn't quoted anyone so wasn't sure. I don't think i have ever even talked to the guy so don't know why he was directing his childish remarks to me. (if he was)...oh well,if he wants to smack talk with me i at least will get to know why? :2tu:

I always get the comment " must be nice to be rich" from guys 35 to 60 years old. I then ask them if they happen to own a diesel truck and a 5th wheel holiday trailer. Most of them say yes they do, at which time I explain to them that there $60,000.00 diesel and $40,000.00 trailer, cost more than my 2008 SSG Viper. I think most people think Vipers cost a lot more than they actually do.

My remarks were regarding what the OP said:

"I am on my way home from C&C today and stopped to get gas when this loser which is a passenger in an old beat up pickup drives by and yells "your car is ugly"."


If the guy was serious my remark would have been:

"Thats not what your toothless ***** said to me last night when I was Dodge Ramming her big ..."

I don't know why "Musclenutz" would think it had anything to do with him or his wife, AS IT DIDN"T.
Only the first sentence in the OP.

Peace & Love

I've tried to explain a few times to people that ANYBODY can afford a Viper. The haters who think it's impossible just haven't really thought it through. All one needs to do it to re-prioritize their spending habits and lifestyle choices. I've seen many a people who just can't seem to get ahead in life and are stuck renting, with little to no food, and basically living paycheck to paycheck.
EXAMPLE - Guys that have worked for me in the past - I have added up their monthly expenditures and (in a somewhat subtle fashion) have explained that, for instance, if they quit smoking 3 packs a day, reduce drinking to an occaisonal thing instead of daily, stop spending money on lap dances, stay away from the casinos, eat in at home instead of out every meal that they can save anywhere from $1000 to $2000 and beyond every single month. All of a sudden -WOW- they can afford a house, or a Viper, OR BOTH.

It truly is SAD that we live in such a degenerated society. Ignorant people abound. Shooting their mouths off on the internet, flaunting their stupidity in public. I could go on and on. Guess it's the only way they feel important.

Another thing that floors me, is the impudence of people today. Can't tell you how many times I've been asked: 'So How much did you pay for it?'
None of your &*%$ing business, is what I think to myself. But I just say 'more than my 1st house - which I bought over 25 yrs ago' - That way it leaves them guessing. Plus, seeing the look in their eyes is priceless:D

And whenever someone makes a rude comment, I just smile and say 'thank-you'. Nothing burns someone else's hide more than not being able to rile you.

It's been said that living well is the best revenge. :yay:

Plus there are enough crazy f*cks that would just as soon take out their pistol and shoot you dead. So I kinda like Roffey's approach.

Another retort-

"Not as ugly as YOU!"
