Quote from "jeepartie"It may not be the person at all. People get sick of answering the SAME questions everytime they stop at wawa to get something to drink.
You don't want attention? - buy a liberty.
Some of the guys in the viper club have that very same complaint; "every time I stop someone has to ask what the speakers in the hood are for..." blah, blah, blah... Hell, I consider it a good week if I don't hear it once. But my response to them is simple - go buy a mustang, no one will ever bother you again.
My only (car guy) pet peeve is with this kind of attitude. You go out an buy a car that's different from the mainstay, then you mod it out to make even that much more unique, then you drive it to wawa and get uptight when people ask you questions about it. WTF? If you're not after attention and individulaity then why even bother to put bigger tires, bigger motor, winch, ect... in the first place?
When I buy my 'rare' vehicles I do it with the knowledge that every single time I pull up to a stoplight someone is going to ask me a stupid question. If no one does, then I consider it a perk. I accept that because that's why I bought the car in the first place - to be unique from the buick crowd.
My oath as a jeep owner is to promote jeep ownership, even if I have to repeat myself on occation.
