How can I still be respected if I start driving a weenie car? I'm at the point where I really just need a solid daily driver but I'm self conscious about such a generic boring car, even if it suits my needs perfectly.
>>28929032That's what a truck is for laddie.
>>28929032Normies really don't give a shit what you drive as long as it's not dilapidated
>>28929032>How can I still be respectedStop being self conscious about things.
>>28929042I thought about it but ultimately I'm not paying an extra 15k for utility I can't utilize.
>>2892905515k is a small price to pay for respect amongst your peers.
It doesn't matter what car you drive, there is always a negative connotation.Drive a...big truck? little dicksmall truck? not a real mansedan? you're boringcoupe? you're stupid and impractical.convertible? GAYsports car? try hard boy racer.CUV? NPC SUV? must be Karen on the way to pick up coffeehybrid / EV? must be a liberal nutjobgas guzzler? must be a KKK redneck luxury car? you must be a prickold car? poornew car? debt slavedirty car? slobclean car? time wasting weirdo with no real hobbiesBasically, you're a huge retard if you car what other people think about your car.
>>28929044>>28929070accuratealso your general personality will contribute more than your car. when I got a new car, on the first day I drove it to work, I dumped it in our COOs "spot" (he's reviled at work, and had the day off) because it's right by the door. multiple coworkers started immediately shitting on him for getting a "fancy" new car. when they found out it was actually mine, they all said I deserved it, that they were happy I got to have something nice and finally replace my shitbox. more importantly, how relieved they were that he didn't get a nice new car. knowing all of them pretty well, only one was being disingenuous, but she's always been a sour grapes cuntand if you're worried about randos having an opinion rather than peers, I still stand by the "who gives a fuck" attitude when it works for you
>>28929032Get a bike. They're a much better substitute for a personality than a car.
>>28929084>also your general personality will contribute more than your carThat's all that needs to be said.If you are a hard worker, treat your car well, keep it in great shape, and have an aura of self confidence, you can walk out of a Miata or New Beetle and everyone will tell you they think it's cool. Always smile and stand up with great posture getting out of your car. Occasionally glance back and give it a shit-eating grin. If people respect you they won't say a fucking word.
>>28929032Its not the car but the man who drives the car. I see an Edgar or Nog driving a sports car I dont see them anything higher than what they are
>>28929032>I'm self conscious about such a generic boring caryou can make a boring car look exciting with the right paint job or vinyl wrap
>>28929032>How can I still be respected if I start driving a weenie car?
>>28929070try being a muscle car owneryou have small pp and boyracer and redneck and poor negro and prick assigned to you at once
>>28929070i'm a poor boring prick of a slob
>>28929032Civic SiGTIA3
>>28929042That's a little weenie car
>>28929032I saw a car with a Ford badge the other day that looked a bit like that and couldn't be bothered to find a name badge.That is peak woman car. Hand your penis in you have no use for it now.
>>28929070>Hatchback not mentionedThe TRUE Sporty, Utilitarian Vehicle reigns supreme
>>28929794For starters those aren't viable but also they're in no way less weenie. The A3 is maybe the weeniest thing you can buy behind a Fiat 500
Pic is about, it says I'm edumacated and available, jump on my winky. Apparently.It isn't a Golf.
>>28929055You'll use the utility one day. And that's all the reasoning you need. Just slap some truck nuts on there and everyone will have a good laugh.
>>28929055get a maverick and give it a ridiculous bov
>>28929832you work in low level IT and none of your peers or acquaintances respect you
>>28929918I test drove one and I do like it but I hate the new screen. The Escape, incredibly, still has full analog controls for the climate AND radio.
>>28929032Driving a toyota or a ford is how you tell everyone that you know very little about most things in life
>>28929032even the CEO of Ford says that car is gay
>>28929945He drives a Chinese EV so I don't really care about his opinions on cars.CEOs in general are the most useless members of society.
>>28929032>I'm self consciousHas nothing to do with the vehicle you own. Quit being such a coward.
>>28929878>It isn't a Golf.Accurate
>>28929032My company uses these. They can withstand a freakish amount of idling. With no exaggeration, we run them about 21 hours a day every day so I can confirm they handle high idling hours. They're comfy even at high mileage, but the turbos are such dogshit I can't recommend them. They're so laggy it's a legit safety hazard. Regularly, I put my foot down trying to speed up from a red or doing highway maneuvers and it will take a legit 2-3 seconds for any power to come on. These pieces of shit will do literally fucking nothing for 2 seconds after slamming your foot down then shudder and deliver inconsistent throttle and transmission response. This isn't due to mileage because even the new ones drive like this.I have been driving German turbo 4 cylinder engines for years and none of them are even close this bad.
