Rude Vette Drivers
Today, on my way home on the freeway, I looked in the rearview and saw a really pretty Millennium Red Coupe coming up from my back, so I slowed up for him to catch up.
We passed an entrance ramp and up came a nice Millennium Yellow vert right beside us.
They gave each other the wave and even added a thumbs-up about each other's car...but they completely ignored me. I was sitting right beside them waving my *** off and they never even looked at me.
Then they took off, side by side, one letting the other in front of him so they could cruise off. They completely ignored me! I was outraged.
If I could've kept up with them, I'd have given them both the finger...but my wife's jeep won't go that fast.

did they actually see you?? they probably were enamored with one another's vettes and may not have noticed you in the jeep..sometimes it's hard to recognize vette owners when they are in their daily driving machines...as i was reading this i thought it was going to end up that you were in your vette as well, and the other two chose to give you the "celebrity brush off."....now that would have really sucked...i've been there before..waving at vettes while i'm in another vehicle and they look @ me like i'm crazy....yeah...or it's the 3rd such "joke thread" today...

What about a big red "R" on the back? What'cha think?

Or maybe we could have badges made up to identify ourselves as Corvette certified! That way, even if you're in "your other car," a fellow Corvette brother wouldn't have an excuse not to acknowledge you. Yeah, that's the ticket!!
