biggest poseur SUV

[pstokely]

any luxury SUV

[slackmaster]

1. The Kenworth Pilgrimmage, of course!

Seriously, I don't understand why Cadillac, BMW, Daimler-Benz, etc. have gotten into that market. Even the Infiniti Qx4 seems odd because it's almost identical to my Nissan Pathfinder but costs about $10K more.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

9. slackmaster this pic is a joke right?

[slackmaster]

11. Yes, it's a joke

Specifically to poke fun at the biggest real SUVs - Lincoln Navigator, etc.

[Catshrink]

30. That is funny! Love that photo.

The sad thing is, some people would buy the damn thing.

[baldguy]

13. One word: M O N E Y

these monstrosities are considered to be "trucks", so they don't have to meet the same safety, mileage & emissions standards as passenger cars. And they create a huge profit for car makers. It costs Infiniti about $2K to turn a Pathfinder into a Qx4, you do the math.

SUVs are the penultimate Republican vehicle: style and image over logic and substance, the whole market is a creation of marketing and advertising; not need, they are wasteful of resources, they literally crowd out other cars on the road and in the parking lot, the owners don't know how to drive them safely or responsibly - and the whole attitude of the owners is "screw the other guy".

[LibDemAlways]

18. LOL

Thanks, Slackmaster. That's a good one.

However, I guarantee that if the Kenworth Pilgrimage hit the showrooms tomorrow, every yuppie family in my So. Cal suburb would be clammoring to own one. They define the word "sheeple."

I once counted 18 mega SUV's in a row lined up at the drop-off zone in front of my daughter's elementary school. My personal " favorites" are the Denali and the Yukon. All of these monsters are total pieces of shit. I'd be ashamed to be seen in one.

[Sirius_on]

39. I want one!!! Seriously

That is a badass ride!!

[Walt Starr]

2. The H2

Hummer, for men who can't get one any other way.

[slackmaster]

3. No worse than the Jaguar automobile

"For the man who wants a hand job from a woman he barely knows."

For 10 points, name the movie that line came from.

[JVS]

34. crazy people

[slackmaster]

52. DING DING DING DING!

We have a winner!

That's one of my favorite Dudley Moore movies.

[JVS]

58. Yeah, he was good

I liked his Bedazzled much more than the remake.

[Stuckinthebush]

4. Don't you just want to go up to those guys

and say, "What were you thinking?"

H2s are the goofiest looking vehicles on the road, and they just scream, "Hey! Look at me! I'm having a mid-life crisis!"

[Brummbaer]

6. I love flipping off H2s!

Hummers, by far, are the most obnoxious of the SUVS. I take great pleasure in flipping them all off. Anyone who owns one of these things should be ashamed of themselves!! The epitome of 'Murican decadance and self-centered thinking.

[slackmaster]

12. I work near a private high school La Jolla, California

La Jolla Country Day, alma mater of the infamous Andrew Cunanan.

At least two students there drive H2s. It's appalling even to someone who grew up in a town where the richest girls all got new Mercedes-Benz coupes for their 18th birthdays.

H2s are too large and unwieldy for inexperienced drivers.

[Brian Sweat]

56. The original hummer was a great vehicle

But it was not intended as a town car. If I lived in the Outback of Australia or some other remote area like that, the hummer would be my vehicle of choice. It is an extremley rugged and dependable vehicle that could save your live in a place like that. It is the last vehicle I would want for driving in the city. It was not designed with the confort of the driver in mind. I am sure the commercial version is much better than the military version, but it still cannot be very confortable.

[tsipple]

5. That SUV from Porsche

What's that all about?

[Brummbaer]

8. Porsche Cayenne

It's for poor rich daddy-Os whose little wifey REALLY wears the pants in the family, and won't let them buy a Carerra, that's what it's all about!! I laugh at them, because they are so stupid looking.

Right up there with the "Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe" -- Nissan Murano, butt ugly car if I ever saw one.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

7. anybody see the huge Hummer Ahhnuld gets around in..not the H2

but the big gas guzzling one?

[Dude_CalmDown]

10. That's just the original one

Unless you're talking about this one:

[ElsewheresDaughter]

31. Dude_CalmDown LOL no not the stretch..the original

[Northwind]

14. I went shopping last weekend

And some dink had parked his H2 across 3 spaces (it actually would have fit into one). So I took out my keys and scratched "Impotent" on the hood and both sides. I felt good.

Note, I key any almost vehicle that is parked across multiple spaces or in the handicapped spaces without a tag.

[Brummbaer]

16. You keyed an H2? Ha!

Good for you, I wish I had the balls to do something like this, but I don't. I fear the Neanderthal mentality of the owners!

These f*ckers deserve to be keyed for drawing such negative attention and so little regard for the rest of the earth.

[Northwind]

23. Not worried about neanderthals

Nobody messes with a bald man in a skirt

[graham67]

26. Wow!

*thud*

[ArkDem]

19. I aways feel good when I destroy other peoples property on the sly.

It's not as much fun when they are watching and I don't feel as good.

[Northwind]

28. The I guess you would not have enjoyed it as much

That time I did it when the guy was sitting in the car (a Lexus). Funny how the people that do this are never driving anything that costs under $50,000.

[donco6]

33. I drive a BMW.

And if you keyed my car I'd sue your ass to kingdom come.

[ArkDem]

51. Methinks Northwind is an apt name.....

If you'd done that in Arkansas virtually any car owner would have had you spitting out teeth. I think perhaps that might happen virtually anywhere though. Good story though.

[Northwind]

55. I am in Texas

[deadeye]

20. you're a scumbag northwind

I always park my truck in the back of the parking lot and generally take up at least 2 spaces- mostly to keep my kids from dinging a car next to mine when they open the doors. You'd be dead meat if I caught you!

[SheepyMcSheepster]

57. when take up two spaces

it comes across that you are more important than the rest of us plebians. to me it is as rude as cutting in line or parking in a handicap space.

I am not condoning keying cars, just affirming that double parkers come as across as rude.

[hippywife]

21. Well, there's a good attitude

Sounds more like repub tactics to me. As much as I hate the damn things and scream everytime I see one, nothing could compel me to deface another's property. That's sinking even below their standards.

[snake1306]

22. That's so tolerant of you!

.

[Northwind]

24. It actually has nothing to do with whether or not it is an SUV

It is because the person is so thoroughly inconsiderate as to take up multiple spaces. Where I come from, we don't simply let people get away with that shit.

[hippywife]

25. It's really a question of

which act is most inconsiderate in the grand scheme of things. And you talk about the people driving them being "impotent." You obviously hold all the power you need in your car key. :eyes:

[Sirius_on]

37. So taking up a parking space is worth several thousands in damage?

Your hiding behind the internet is the only thing keeping me from turning you in. Someone tossed a rock at my new explorer and I was about to hang him by his ballsack if I caught the little prick.

[Brian Sweat]

59. I don't condone keying someone's car,

but where I come from, it is common knowledge that if you get in the habbit of taking up two or more parking spaces, you will eventually be the victim of vandalism.

[Piperay]

47. So, you just want to

teach someone to be considerate, seems you need to learn that yourself. :crazy: You don't know who these people are or WHY they park like that, maybe they are old or have small children or any number of reasons. Why don't you just leave a note on their car saying they should be more considerate? They don't know why you damaged their property all they know is that some thug is probably jealous of what they have. Your behavior does more harm than good and makes this an uglier world than it already is. :argh: :-(

[John_H]

60. Time to join the Texas State Police

asshole, although judging from your boneheadded posts my guess is that you're a troll. I jus loooove trolls, 'cause to piss us off they make freepers/and Greens look so wonderfully stupid. Keep it up, my bro!

[arcane1]

29. you need to come work in my office building!

though to be fair, I'd say a good 75% of the double-parkers are not the SUV's... that just makes it worse...

[Piperay]

43. Geeesh, that is so

sick :puke:, sounds like something a repukelican would do. :mad:

[Raine]

48. GOD, you sound like

you're the one with an impotence problem or repressed jealousy. Walk don't run and get some anger managment therapy before you end up behind bars. What you did is a very sick thing.

[Piperay]

50. IGNORE: posted this in the wrong thread

:-(

[pstokely]

15. which SUVs are not SUVs but just markted as them?

?

[donco6]

17. Subarus

Forester - not really big enough to be an SUV, nor as gas guzzling.

[bloom]

27. ?

Who says Sport Utility Vehicles have to be big?

They started out smaller and have gotten unreasonable. That doesn't make the unreasonable ones the REAL ones.

[slackmaster]

53. Toyota Rav4

Really much too small to be an SUV, and I've heard it gets over 30 MPG. More like a mid-size station wagon.

[annonymous]

32. The Hummer

These things are the worst roadhogs, especially in the city where roads tend to be narrow and parking is at a premium. I also hate the so called luxury SUV's such as the Lincoln Navigator, Cadallac Escalade, and Chevy Suburban.

[DisgustedTX]

35. The whole keying thing is so wrong.

I have a small car that I pay for each month. It's nothing special, but I'm proud of it.

This keying thing reeks of anger/jealousy. I can tell you honestly that I would leave you or anyone else near death and then call the police.

Destruction of property is wrong unless done in self-defense.

[Sirius_on]

36. I agree

I would shove my tailpipe in his mouth and hit the gas untill he passes out, then call the police and have him tossed in the clink.


Maybe not literally like that, but something deserving.

[donco6]

38. Yes.

This is the act of an ignorant child.

[Gringo]

40. No sympathy from me

for people who plunk down the equivalent of 5 years of my salary on a freakin' car because it got keyed. I don't key cars, even assholish SUV's or the ones with Bush stickers, but my little '95 Escort wagon has been keyed (probably because of my DU and Dean stickers) and I didn't freak about it - it's a stupid lousy hunk of metal. A Hummer is the same. A much bigger, stupider, and uglier hunk of metal. It is of course wrong to vandalize the property of others, but I am not going to shed any tears over minor cosmetic damage to the absurd luxury toys of the idle rich while we regular people are being robbed blind by the Bush cabal. (In part to pay for more tax cuts for those same idle rich)

[donco6]

46. This sums it up.

"It is of course wrong to vandalize the property of others"

[Bamboo]

41. Drop tanks would add military flair.

In gorillas the largest male makes the lowest thumps and growls,if you do not pick the fleas off his ass you are in big trouble.The roads are like a primate behavior film I think they should show those in drivers ed instead of gory accident clips.I was in a Cessna a few days ago it did not have drag chute or four blade prop.Auto racers heat up tires weaving back and forth and bodybuilders shake their quadriceps is it necessary or aspirational.

[dweller]

42. I come here to kill threads i guess

others come here to post threads threatening to kill someone or do bodily harm to someone who would deface their vehicles with a key.

This thread was about Poseurs. Which are you? The person who claims to be a liberal independant thinker concerned about the vitality of the life of a human being somewhere on the face of this earth, regardless of the country they may have been born in, their color, creed gender faith or social economic status? or the poseur more concerned with the paint job on the POS metal hulk monstrosity with a price tag alone would feed a village in a 3rd world country for a year? I seriously wonder wtf happened in the upbringing of the so called liberals that inhabit this board at times. You would threaten to kill a key scratching-point-making-person who has made your life so unbearably uncomfortable over your possesion, but really don't seem to stop and think about the point they are making is all along?

here's a clue. It's a really small planet. Those behemoths of vehicular insanity you drive are choking away our breath, and the lives of those in other countries on this planet. They require an abundant fuel source that is creating devastating wars and deplorable living conditions that the citizens of those countries with the remaining oil reserves are dealing with and surviving but only barely if at all. Bombs, remember? Not the bomb you are driving, but the bomb that shreds the skin and bones off a human body. ... and you are pissed about a paint job on a madison avenue hyped representation of power and success that you have been suckered into buying and believing is your right and freedom as an Murickan?
Boofuckinghoo.
Face it, you are driving a wide open target of the ugliest of the human race's most despicable examples of self importance, ie. a selfish non-caring greedy and joke of an enlightened individual. In short, a poseur.

This thread is hopefully dead and i'm proud if i've killed it... Power to the keyers.

[donco6]

44. Who said anything about driving an SUV?

I don't. I haven't read any replies from people who do. My car gets 23 mpg, has low emissions. And I like the paint where it is, thank you.

Damaging others' property is wrong. Don't care if you think you have a fantastic reason for doing it. All it does is cause the owner to take it to a shop to have it repainted, further introducing pollutants to the air. Stupid, stupid.

Whatever happened to liberals who knew how to think logically?

[hippywife]

45. Not to mention

increasing insurance rates for everyone!! The more they have to pay out for these kinds of stupid acts (in addition to acccidents and fraudulent claims), the more we all pay.

It isn't a matter of the money going to support a third world village. I would love to see the money better spent, as well, but purposeful destruction is nothing but juvenile vandalism.

[Raine]

49. Do you REALLY think that vandalizing

someone property is going to get them off the road??? They don't even know why some a$$h*le did it, seems like it would make more sense to leave a pamplet on the windsheild. Anyway the vandal who is advocating "keying" doesn't even do it because it is an SUV, he does it to any vechicle when in his opinion the driver is being "inconsiderate". You better hope that if you park the "wrong way" you are not in the same lot as him.

[slackmaster]

54. If I caught someone keying my SUV

I'd call the cops and prosecute them to the max.

[FlaGranny]

61. Hard to believe that

someone could come here and brag about criminal activity, isn't it?

[slackmaster]

62. It's disgusting and provides ammo for conservatives, Reps, etc.

A world of Shame on anyone who advocates illegal activity here!
