be kind to the poor pfc, he’s paying by the week for seven years for that shitbox.
This truck screams “I just blew my enlistment bonus”
Small down payment at best.
Small something
This is a real thing that happens. I know someone who took his bonus and bought a red Toyota Celica and put Lambo doors on it.
I would pass the guy and then let him know he was passed by a queer in a fiesta. You know he’d just hate that.
I once got passed by a rainbow-decal prius with the bumper stickers “0-60 eventually” and “you just got passed by a lesbian in a unicorn outfit”
Sure enough when we stopped at the next light, there were two rather lovey-dovey women in the front seat, and the driver was wearing what looked like a unicorn onesie.
Incidentally, my wife now has a similar unicorn onesie and wears it when we go grocery shopping.
And that’s why I’m always speeding.
Now I have to wonder, does she wear a unicorn onesie all the time or does she put it on over her regular street clothes before driving? If the latter, why? Which came first, the sticker or the onesie? If her partner drives the car, is she required to wear the onesie?
If her partner drives the car, is she required to wear the onesie?
The sticker makes no mention of driving, so I would think that as long as someone in the vehicle is both lesbian and wearing the onesie, its conditions have been fulfilled.
Thr bumper sticker specifies that you have been passed by the car therefore the car must be moving.
Ah, but the person in the passenger seat might also be considered as having passed, no?
So as long as there is someone in the vehicle who is a lesbian and also in a unicorn onesie, it’s still technically correct
Well my wife likes to wear hers when she goes to pick up food, so maybe this woman likes to wear it when she’s driving.
Heck I know someone who refuses to drive without a specific pair of gloves “because driving doesn’t feel right without them” and they have a panic attack without them.
Or maybe they take turns wearing it. Or even just on special occasions and I happened to witness one.
Whatever the case, it made my day
The car doesn’t start unless the driver is wearing the onesie. It’s an after market thing.
Plot twist, she makes the unicorn onesie and that’s her marketing strategy.
Smart move. I’d buy one for me, too if that were the case.
I’m already looking for one in my size…
Have you heard the one where your fiesta takes adderall?
It turns into a focus.
Not original material but I had to say it
Haha
It’s true. I had a focus before the fiesta (the dealer actually bought my focus for more than it was worth and traded the fiesta for it; some stock related issue and they were desperate for focuses). They’re practically identical vehicles.
Was this joke found on road dead?
I drive a Prius and have a very long commute which goes through a rather conservative area. My existence inadvertently pisses off so many big truck drivers. I’ll never understand why some people need to speed up and pass me immediately after I’ve passed them. It’s not a competition!
I don’t understand the correlation of having a small penis and simping for big oil, either. 🤷🏻♂️
See it with Teslas, too. It’s pretty funny to me that even though Tesla is pretty hated, the people who hate them for good reason don’t go around keying them or trying to run them off the road, while the jerk offs who hate them just for being electric are the people who do those things.
I saw one of this Japanese Kei trucks the other day with a decal across the windshield that read “under compensating” :D
Sadly I did not have time to snap a pic.
Super weird correlation, I admit, but in my city it’s been my experience that one odd trend I’ve observed has been that Tesla drivers do three things disproportionately more frequently than drivers of other vehicles:
Lack of using a turn signal (which they arguably share with BMW drivers.
Forcing their way into lane changes and/or cutting people off (often accompanied by a noted lack of signal).
And flat out just plain running red lights. This last one is the most alarming and honestly the one I’ve noticed to be most closely linked to Tesla drivers. It’s so bad that even if I have a solid green when approaching a red light, if I can see a Tesla in approaching or crossing lanes, I’ll let off the gas and hover over the brakes, just in case they “pull a Tesla”. I’ve seen many of them pull up to a solid red, drift to a stop, then find a gap in the cross traffic that has a solid green and just dart across. I’ve seen them turn left on red without stopping. Seen them cause near accidents, all running red lights like they’re just a suggestion.
You can make your commute more interesting (and less safe) by adding a very visible rainbow flag
Guys like this are fun to bait past a speed trap in a little econobox.
Fiestas are a solid hairdressers car.
I don’t know of any liquid or gas hairdressers, so I’m guessing it’s good for all of them.
I’ve heard that people who drive a Dodge Ram are most likely to have a DUI on their record.
For real. Might have changed since then though.

Because some people only live inside their tiny little bubble and can’t think outside of it. So therefore if I don’t have a need or want for a truck then no one else should.
That only works if what you want doesn’t also affect other people. If you buy a giant pick up truck that endangers other people, for no other reason than your own ego, you’re probably an asshole.
Your world view is so tiny. You don’t know shit.
You’re probably an asshole. Only because your own ego is so great and your own mind is so limited you can’t take time to think outside your own tiny little box.
It’s sad really. Also don’t leave your house ever. Your actions endanger other people.
I read that too. I think the 2500 model had the highest rate.
Unless another model has truck balls, which doubles the trucks overall douche-value.
yeah i heard that from regular car reviews!
People who make poor life choices are more likely to make other poor life choices.
It was BMW drivers, rams were a close second to Tesla in driving incidents and highest overall combined incidents and dui.
Saw that recently as well. Wondering if the stats are US versus the world. BMWs just don’t seem common enough in the US to hold the top spot. Unless every driver is constantly tanked at all times.
BMW’s are all over, at least where I live.
At least the alcoholic grindset yuppies are well represented by the BMW 4 series and Audi A4 in the top 5.
Absolutely zero surprise of Ram trucks being #1. The only vehicle that has ever crashed into me was a Ram. All the tires were mismatched and the driver came to his deposition with alcohol on his breath. They’re a fun bunch, those Ram drivers.
I’ll rarely see Rams used as actual work trucks. At least around me, it’s all Fords and Chevy. And if it a Ram, it’s got a Cummins in it. Hemi is weekend warrior shit.
Still the same, up there with BMW
Serious “you will address me by my husband’s rank” energy here
Is this a thing? Lol that’s so depressing.
they’re called dependas and yes very much a thing
Any soldier of worth I’ve ever known, …any true soldier, wouldn’t advertise their profession as such.
Wannabe.
Nothing more.
This screams boot to me, lol. I bet you they financed it at something ridiculous too.
Is there an r/JustBootThings on Lemmy or Kbin? Some of the shit on there was hilarious.
I said the same thing. My ex-husband was military (though not boot at all) and you could absolutely find this truck in the px parking lot. Probably driven by a 20 year old with a kid and a pregnant wife who goes shopping off base in his uniform solely so people will thank him for his service.
Yeah that shit was pretty much the epitome of r/JustBootThings
We were all boots once. Some of us grew out of it.
Boot?
Boot is a derisive term, in this case it’s referring to young inexperienced people fresh out of boot camp. The mindset refers to doing trashy and/or foolish things usually coupled with a strong sense of entitlement (“thank me for my service!”).
Not sure who downvoted you, nothing wrong with asking questions to learn stuff.
Something typical of a person fresh out of boot camp.
Fresh outa boot camp.
No true Scotsman…
wanna bet he’s a 92f or some shit?
maybe a 74a who’s huffed too much ojt
And the Ares is quotes, blegh.
Exactly. Most actual soldiers would say Marine, etc. rarely use soldier.
Unless they are in the Army. Then they would rightfully call themselves a soldier. Soldier, Airman, Marine, Seaman, Guardian and Spacie. I guess not sure on the last one
Guardian… haha… Finally the semen have someone they can laugh at.
Eh, a lot of us did stupid stuff like put a CIB sticker on or something. This is a whole 'nother level.
There used to be a community for this on the website that shall not be named. “Don’t Dead Open Inside” I think?
There’s here too! !dontdeadopeninside@lemmy.ohaa.xyz
The fuck is ohaa.xyz?
Instance…
It’s a place. For things.
New to Lemmy?
I’ve never seen ohaa.xyz either.
It’s not about having seen it it’s about being surprised by a new instance name. It’s the nature of federation
A lot of the images didn’t load because they “contained errors”
I bet it’s financed ar 29.9%
By a private who graduated basic in the last 30 days.

The fuck is a hemi?
A Hemi indicates the top of the combustion chamber has a Hemispherical shape, rather than the typical frying pan type shape.
The increased size of the chamber means additional fuel and air can be introduced, which increases power output.
It’s old tech like carburetors. It’s wasteful on fuel, but MOPAR fans love it.
Doesn’t it also mean a higher compression ratio? Meaning more power behind the same A:F ratio? Or am I as dumb as the guy who put the stickers on that truck?
“Due to the shape of the hemispherical combustion chamber, it’s difficult to raise the compression ratio high enough to fully take advantage of its superior shape, irrespective of the brand on the valve cover”
https://www.motortrend.com/how-to/hemi-engine-pros-cons/
This is also interesting:
“If the 2003-present Gen-III Hemi isn’t a real hemi engine, then why do we call it that? With good reason, Chrysler (now FCA) wanted to extend the “Hemi” branding to its third-generation Hemi V-8 because of the instant recognition and status it carries.”
It’s something rednecks will ask other rednecks about whether they have one or not. If you see that sticker, there is about a 30 percent chance that the driver of the vehicle is drunk.
An old-fashioned engine design.
It’s a type of engine design found mainly in certain pickup trucks. I don’t know why but it’s an important thing to some people.
Can’t forget the charger.
It’s the engine in the truck. It’s a Chrysler V8.
The car I think
Don’t dead open inside
Imagine being a soldier and still having something to prove on the freeway
Dishonorable discharge
People who treat driving as some kind of competition should have their license permanently revoked.
sad race car noises
The price is wrong sound, but in fart muffler tones.
When I’m driving all day, I try as hard as possible to forget who passes me and who I pass. This little kid in my mind is like “pay attention, lars, don’t let them get there first!”. It’s gross.
I kinda do but the only one im competeing with is myself and the shitty dirt “road” I decided to drive on.
You just By A Driving
Got
Passed Soldier A Hemi
Ares
Apparently one who isn’t literate either.
You, just by a driving, got passed. Soldier, a hemi!!
Hope I’m not the only one trying to put these words to Smooth Criminal.
You just got passed by, you just got hit by, a soldier in a hemi!
I’m speeding, I kill people for the government, and my engine has hemispherical combustion chambers!
and my engine has hemispherical combustion chambers!
Not even that anymore. HEMI is just a marketing term.
