Did you every think that maybe us "regular" Joe's (or Bob's as the case may be) are just jealous... the little rich kids didn't get to pick their parents, so it's not really their fault at all. Most of the snot-nosed punks that get nice cars handed to them, get to go to nice Colleges (fully-paid by their parents), then graduate with no student loans, again get a new car from the family for graduating, then get hooked up with a nice job by someone their daddy knows. Many of the people who get everything handed to them don't really appreciate it as much as the guys who worked hard for it - but they still have all the cool stuff nonetheless.

All true but I had rather have my pride and knowledge in my vehicle that I have not only worked hard to buy, but also worked hard to get it where it is. I work at least 40 hours a week and go to school at night. I work on my car when Im not in school or at work. I had much rather do this than call a shop and tell them to build me a car. I had much rather work and make my payments on a truck that is no where near what these kids that were talking about are driving. My parents bought me my first vehicle. It was a 1992 Toro Wheel Horse lawn mower. Dad told me if I wanted to drive when I turned 16 I would work for it. I am so glad he done this. I had much rather have that lawn mower than a new vette to this day.

I know of a person whose daddy just bought him a 2002 Vert Vette about three months ago. Two weeks ago at the track when the Vette owner had his *** handed to him in a grudge race against a 89 gt with a 150 shot and slicks, the father said that the boy couldnt drive. The father drove the car in the next race against the same stang. Same thing again. The Vette is now sportin a 200 shot, slicks and some other goodies that we arent supposed to know about. All paid for by daddy just so this "KID" can beat a well known racer who has several dollars and several hours invested in. These people are stupid and shouldnt be allowed to drive anything but a Yugo. I think part of this is showing off how much money they have also. If Yugo's cost 50 grand and a Vette was 10, I bet every rich kid in the world would have a Yugo.
