A friend of mine blows a gasket if anyone calls his AMG a "Mercedes". I imagine he'd be one of the people you're seeing on the interstate!

Reminds me of a kid in High School that had a Plymouth "Cuda". If someone called it a "Barracuda" his shit would come unglued.

What’s funny about the AMG thing is all engines were hand assembled back in the day. Then came machine assembled and that was supposed to be better. Now it’s back hand assembled. Lol
What makes it better is the two turbochargers bolted onto it.

I had a guy in a Electric Honda Prologue tell me to Fuck off and Die at a stop light. But maybe the decal on my Jeep provoked him??? :) 😎 :)

In the high desert and mountains here in So Cal, no unfriendly behavior to the JT or Cx-5. Now, our 500c on the other hand seems to offend some of the full size + lifted truck drivers, but only some, and I do not care.

Otherwise, common courtesy is apparently not taught at home or school anymore, and therefore does not exist. At one job, we needed documented training for the common courtesies like please, thank you, and you're welcome.

I've repeatedly been told I'm very polite. I always think: "No, I'm really not, the bar is just really low now!"

I believe we need to see a framed document that you graduated the common courtesy course. Pics or it didn’t happen!!! :CWL:

I went with ThinkWare at Best Buy. It’s held up really good so far. It’s been from Florida to here in SoCal and this is its second vehicle. Easy to use and plugs into the ODB II for full time security.
Second the ThinkWare Dash Cams. I have this setup https://thinkwarestore.com/product/...VsFEiBNiMIl8X7aY8PmYj3Vl2LHzbZUEPyOal7-cvPKZt should also be sold on Amazon. It also has a sentry mode and records anything that goes by the Jeep front or rear while I'm parked. Its able to run for 3 days before it auto shuts off to preserve my battery. Automatically records over old footage so i don't need to continuously load new SD cards. The app is kinda slow, but it works.
