[QUOTE="Tourmax, post: 176375, member: 5304"] Nah, it’s just the typical crappy drivers these days. I can be in the mustang, the vette, my f150 or the wife’s minivan. They all get tailgaters or those suicidal passes. The Vette ans the mustang don’t so much get “tail gaters”, but they do attract more than thier fair share of “street squids” looking to “whip it out and measure”. Like you, I’m old enough to not care and have nothing to prove, so I just let them go and continue on my way. My F-150, however, doesn’t get as many tailgaters as it used to these days. I bought a 10 lb sledgehammer, painted it dayglow orange and set it on the step portion of my rear bumper. Anyone gets too close they see the hammer bouncing and sliding around on the bumper and they back right off as fast as they can. One guy backed off so fast I was sure he must have locked up the brakes! Lol! What they don’t know is I have a small braided cable holding it on the bumper. Long enough for the hammer to shimmy and move around, but not long enough to let it fall off. Best thing I ever did.....:) [/QUOTE]
