Interesting Encounter today

I am driving along minding my own business when this S-10 cranks out in front of me. Theres about 5 inches of heavy wet snow on the road and he has a load that is so heavy you can see his front tires toe in and toe out on every bump. The bumper is about 4" from the road.
I was doing the speed limit and had to slow down for this nut.
I made sure I was way back behind him.
With no signal he wanders back into the other lane and as I pass him he waves with one finger.
Just so happens that he gets off at the same exit and is now beside me at the light. All I did was smile and he gets out of the truck and starts yelling over at me.
I roll the window down to hear him say... "You think your pretty *$%&#n cool in that big ugly truck huh?"

I started laughing and said; "Yeah its all about the truck buddy. Look at you in that little wanna be truck that can barely handle a few hundred pounds of weight and look at you struggling with your small man syndrome."
I was laughing so hard I never heard his next comment and away I went.
He did not look too impressed with what I said.
It was priceless.

Takes all kinds.

s-10

We all make mistakes, I had an S-10 too. Of course I sold that cause why use gas when diesel is cheeper. Boy oh boy did I learn my lesson. Now that gas is near 2 dollars again my butt hurts from me kicking it. Mine was the ZQ8 one (kinda like an extream) It was pretty good and it would handle a quad with no problem. But then I moved up to my cummins and it handles a hole heck of a lot better.

I was expecting this post to be about how much of a moron I am because Scotty called me and I didn't recognize his voice, so I answered my cell as "Capt Hohn" just in case it was someone who outranked me


DOH!!
