Default Buzz kill people

Just got the 05 black roadster. I'm lovin it. But the guys at work, all blue collar guys WILL NOT STOP busting my ***** about the car. "Hey Brown, I hear you bought a gay car:" "Where's your boyfriend?" "Nice gaymobile". It goes on and on and on. These people are such downers! Real tired of it. Just had to vent.

Compare the crossfire to other 2cter roadsters in the same price range... Crossfire is starting to look more manly isnt it!

The Crossfires are nice cars. Great styling, nice handling and just a fun car. I am surprised that the people you work with are making statements like that. Apparently your company does not have a harrassment policy in place. In todays world, people that say stupid things without thinking of the consequences can end up in the unemployment line.

When I drive mine to work, I get the jealousy thing...

ooooo, look at you...driving a SPORTS car. or

wow, you must have gotten a raise.

etc...

I tell them is didn't cost very much, but they aren't listening at that point.

oh well.

They are just jealous or maybe they are hoping for a date and a ride in the car...... My friends straight and gay are envious of my little SSB Limited. And I do enjoy the comments from both young and old. "What type of car is that?", "Who makes that?", and my personal favorite at the next light...."What that hell is under your hood????" so, Enjoy your car and when they pull up in the Dodge Diesel Ram truck....just leave them in the dust....................

The O P's car has no stickers whatsoever. I had a political sticker on my last convertible just before the last election. My roof got slashed. I know better now.

Well, those fellar's are just plain jealous...that's all. Tell them to get on here and we will show them just how fast those little gay or straight cars are...as for lining up with a Dodge diesel truck....I wouldn't do that. Last time I ran at a test and tune day, I lined up against one4" lift kit, 4 wheel drive, and he ran an 11.7 to my 12.1. I was in the roadster. I might make 360 to the wheels, but his 900hp/1000ftlbs of torque injecting propane was too much for the roadster...lol Just have fun with it and come hang out with us. We won't bust your ***** as much...

Well ..... one of my competitors calls my car a California Barbie Blue Car. I don't take offense. After the race I point out he just lost to a Barbie car. So you tell me which is most embarrassing, driving one or being beat by one?

I also have a black Roadster. Nobody's called it "gay". Everyone that's challenged it has been beaten.

Your co-workers are imbeciles.
