I can only imagine you in your Superduty behind some poor innocent soul in a Prius with an Obama sticker. Oh......the humanity!

Thats when I kick the programer into 100HP mode. Makes the truck smoke like a hot turd if you lug it at all. Makes me look like a redneck double not spy

You sure it isn't just typical idiot Florida drivers and you just notice the mistakes more when they are in a big vehicle?

Perhaps. Though it seemed like a lot of the extra special idiots congregated to Super Duties for some reason. Omitting 4 cylinders of fury ricers, of course... Though today it seems some of those Super Duties owners migrated to Titans and Tundras.... I don't think I've seen a Titan owner that can wait in the left lane for a line of cars to pass a semi or slower car, without at least attempting to zoom up the right lane to grab a couple spots...

So it's pickups in general you don't like. I looked at the Toyota when I was shoping for a real vehicle to drive after the wreck. I could flex the sidewall of the bed. Almost 40 grand and it was built like a paper cup, hence the Superduty.

No doubt the therapists in your area are dong a fine business seeing Prius owners. I had my truck parked in front of a little place that sells natural dog food and other nice stuff for your dogs and I was fitting a couple collars and this college-aged hippie girl comes in with her dog and wanted to know who owns the big Ford in the parking lot. I figured here we go and I was going to get an earful about it. Turns out her grandpa had the same exact truck color and everything and she said it brought back some very fond memories and though it was cool that it was so shiny and nice. You never can tell with people.

Nah, my dad's 04 GMC Envoy is near 200k miles, so I've been sending him some links to Silverados/Sierras with the 6.2L (Escalade motor), and I dunno if you know of it, but the new Ford F150 "Raptor" is very cool, esp now that you can get a bigger motor in it then the 5.4 trition. Could have a blast in that thing.

I dunno, it just seemed like the same 'mindset of people' were rocking Super Duties there for the most part of the 2000's. They usually had some signage on the truck, landscaping, plumbing, horses, etc. were generally in a hurry, not that I really mind that, but more do whatever they want. Of course not saying all owners are like. Christ a 24 year old rocking a pearl white Cadillac is prove of stereotype exception... But just some general observations I've made.
Do it yourself, whenever you're out on the road, see if you can find a Titan driver that isn't weaving through traffic.

I kind of agree, I understand being in a hurry but come on take a chill pill and go just 10 over the speed limit. Especially with your 6000 pound truck pulling your load of a backhoe.

When I lived in Montana I reached the conclusion people from Colorado couldn't drive. Everytime you saw someone screwing up it was Colorado plates on the car. I moved to Colorado a few years ago and discovered I WAS RIGHT!!!
I've seen plenty of screwups with Florida plates too. I mean they were making the Colorado folks look like experts. Then I heard one of the car rental agencies had rotated a bunch of rental cars in from Florida which explained a lot of them, Colorado still takes the prize for idiot drivers.
