I saw yet another car today with a rear window crammed with dozens of stuffed animals. What is so appealing about that? I know everyone has the right to "personalize" their vehicles any way they want, but some stuff looks so tacky! Like some folks who plaster so many bumper stickers on the back of their cars, you can't even tell what color it is! What other types of automotive personal expression do you find irritating? David
...at a car show...those little dolls that look like a little kid...that lean on cars with their back to you....with their heads on their hands like they are playing hide n go seek... You know those things? Well they make me want to kill
Well Chris, i guess your not coming to my local car show. Every Wednesday you would want to kill?uzzled: :blast: I hate it when people drive around, espically in luxury vehicles, and the brake dust, road dirt and grime etc. gets all over the hubcaps, or rims. I mean c'mon clean it up. Now that i think about it, this sounds like a dumb pet peeve to me.o No:
This might be pretty closed minded, but "art cars" really bug me. You know, people who cover their car with grass, or alarm clocks, or old CD's in an attempt to make a piece of art. Oh yes, and '80's custom paint schemes. Ugly colours, ugly graphics.
I think the Orange County Choppers and West Coast Choppers decals are getting old.You know that a majority of the people who have them on their vehicles can't afford one anyways.Like the Dakota I seen the other day....Rust bucket,bald tires, and hadn't seen a car wash in decades...Let alone a tailpipe.

I can't stand the No War In Iraq stickers. Living in the Bay Area they are everywere. It is even stupider when they re-arrange the letters to say stuff like "bush is on crack". I hate hippies:af: -Phill
Fake bullet holes, stuffed animals and little boys leaning on tires are the norm at the local car cruise in here in Eliz. TN. Never understood any of them. Just pisses me off that people take away from beautiful cars with that crap! What about matching velvet pillows in the rear seat!!
I really don't care to much what people put on their car. Though I still question the monster wings on the back of FWD cars. As not one is ever set up right. Dump people with pot leaf stickers or bands famous for drugs. I just think they are dumb for asking for it. $20,000 rim on a $800 car. Stupid 1/8 miles numbers on the side of rice. I hate 1/8 mile. Its for **ss*s. Its dumb and who ever thought of it is stupid. Seams way to easy to me. Racing should be made harder if anything. They should make it longer not shorter. 1/2 or 1 mile top fuel dragsters. Try building a 8000HP monster to run that long n far. 700mph 12sec 1/2 mile runs. any smart fellow would make t hem longer. Think of all the extra stand space you could fill. 700MPH crashes will rival NASCAR. Though I hate the turn signal thing and kids not in the car seat. I hate Fords
People that spend over $1000 on brand new wheels and dont spend the extra 420 to get chrome center caps!
I might offend a couple of people here, but here goes. You get to a car show, Just a cruise mind you, nothing where judging will be going on, just a fun night and out comes the rags the 14 types of cleaners and the 45 minute "reclean" on a car that looks like it was washed that morning. I'm al for a clean car, but do they do that EVERYWHERE they go? On normal cars I hate: Antenna Stuff, ie happy face ball. Novelty floor mats Those fuzzy steering wheel covers. "Big Foot" gas pedels.
Most of the crap on trucks around here. Lowered trucks, tires sticking out of the fender wells, the "Bite me Chevy/Ford Boy" sticker (or the Calvin peeing on...just about everything), the Massive bowties, ford emblems, confederate flags on the rear view mirror (this is in WISCONSIN, this pisses me off a lot, more likely than not their ancestors fought AGAINST confederates). Lets see the biggie for me is the Nascar stickers of famous Nascar drivers (Earnhart, Gordon, etc), if they were on a few cars it would be alright but they are everywhere, like Nascar is a damn religion! Duals with the pipes bent or the tips, that look crummy in the first place, put on wrong (the dumbaxe who put them on the LeSabre before I bought it did them wrong and it looks like ass) Then there is the rear lights, cleared out with the red in the center. Bleesh. I'm done for now, but give me five minutes i'll think of something. There is so much tasteless garbage I see everyday it makes me nauseous to drive. Patrick
Aah, you mean a bobblehead. I had a big skull one that my friend actually stuck in my Regal but it was on top of the heater controls so it was more for "in car" enjoyment.
I wish people would stop putting duals on brand new trucks. The factory pieces will last for a long time and are quiet to boot. Young people put big crappy pipes on with junk "Turbo" mufflers which wake the dead. The fancy chrome tips start to pit after about a week and look terrible. o No: :error:
