I went to a meetup tonight in my neck of the woods and had to vent a little.
My car is in no way a show car or a rare bird, but just about everything I've done to it has been on my own, on my back in the driveway. I am under no illusion that my 4door is bringing home a trophy, or expect folks to come chat me up about it. However, I'll be damned if I'm gonna sit and let some big money gray hair talk down to me about his "toy" chebby that he bought and keeps in a trailer.
So, I sit there and grit my teeth and listen politely for a while and eventually walk over to my ugly duckling and leave knowing she's mine, with my blood, my sweat, and my heard earned cash. And no one loves her like I do.
I know I'm just whining and being sensitive, but had to vent for the little guy who shows up with what sits in the driveway and not in the trailer. Show it proud!
