Haha this, and a BMW 328 (extra points for fake M badges) when they get near a car that's actually fast.

Respect you for owning that E39. Nice.

Subaru drivers are the shittest boot-licking obedients known. Or lesbians…the bad ones.

Believe it or not, it's got 245K miles on it.     It's been such a solid car.  Of course, like any car with high miles, things go bad.  Most of which I've been able to fix myself.   There are somethings I know to take to the pros.    Puts a smile on my face whenever I drive it.   I get people offering to buy it from me all over town.      Not a chance....there are no new cars that stir me.  All are bloated with techno-gadgetry, nanny electronics, auto trannies.

We had an E46 3-series too (wifes previous car)....it had 275K miles when we sold it to an ecstatic kid who just had to have a 5 speed manual.   Hated to let it go. 

 

I’m sort of hoping that the Caddy CT5V Blackwing has huge initial depreciation. I’d love to pick up one of those with low miles for less than half of MSRP, but I’m also not holding my breath.  668HP and a 6 speed manual?  Seats 4 relatively comfortably?  Yes, please!

I’m way too cheap to pay the new price for one, but if I were to find one where the owner just didn’t like to shift gears as much as they thought they would, I’d definitely consider it.

They are excellent at going the exact speed limit in the fast lane no fucking matter what. I've never seen anything like it.

 

I  just dealt with that yesterday. My favorite is the getting in the freeway doing 45.

This is me, old man, drives a 10+ year old F150 2WD grey crew cab as a daily driver.

My fun car that almost never gets out of the garage anymore. I love the looks of this car and it drives like a slot car. I've had it for over 20 years and still love the looks of it and it puts smile on my face every time I drive it.

This is my old man truck.  I was gonna replace the injectors (260k).  Those plugs have 30k on them.  I'm not seeing any indication that I need new injectors.  If it aint broke...don't fix it.  As others have said...it's plain white, camper shell and might as well be stealth to the cops.

Not to mention it looks like any other G-man company truck in the midwest. 😄

Very Stealth!

You look like you are collecting water samples or perhaps finding under ground gas lines!

Well done, you will never be pulled over 😀

When you drive such a generic truck like we do, do you ever have your mind on other things and sometimes walk up to someone else's truck and try to get in before you realize it's exactly like yours but not yours? I do that from time to time. Makes me laugh!

Unless you’re out on a Friday after 10pm. Then the police assume you’ve been in the bar since about 4 when you got off work in the trades.

RAV 4 0STORM TROOPER 0

Our old person under the radar car is a white Rav4. There's thousands of these thing around here. They're like the storm Troopers they look like, hundreds of them everywhere. It's the most un-unique car we've ever owned. I put a moto sticker on the back window so we can tell which ones ours.

I had an 05, it was a good truck. My 16 with 150,000 is needing its second torque converter. I should get a new truck, but I hate getting ripped off on vehicles.

I had a 98 K1500 and people would pull out in front of me just because they thought I was an old man going 45mph.

Not sure how you could stereotype this.

But I'd drive it around like a boss. Until I inevitably was pulled over by the local county sheriff.

I change my ac Delco plugs twice a yr.  If you ever get pulled ovr for speeding . Just get a safety vest on and say your racing to the power station for an emergency.  Pic after doing a 360 so easy to do once you get the van leaned ovr.  IMG 9839 1.jpeg?VersionId=wQ3nmK
