Absolutely not.

And I didn't dress like a pirate when I rode my Harleys either.

I may get flamed for this but its just an opinion............I tend to laugh at the guys all decked out in Corvette gear because they are usually the guys with the Chevette.

Lol, Corvette apparel, not even once.

Why would anyone feel the need to wear stuff advertising their car? I would feel embarrassed and super douchey to wear anything like this in public.

I worked with a guy (he retired last week) who wore Harley clothing every day. Every day. The same Harley vest, Harley belt buckle, shirts, drank from his Harley coffee mug and Harley water cup. Harley decals/items all over his Toyota truck (at least 10-12). Harley paraphernalia littered his office (again, at least 10-12 items/pictures). Every time a customer would come in for a meeting he'd throw in at some awkward time (when could it not be awkward?) that he rides a Harley.
So, I guess you drive a Harley? Wow...

Haha, I've seen people like that in public before. I thought I read a few years back that Harley-Davidson makes more off licensing their name than they make from producing motorcycles. Sometimes I wonder if half the people you see with stickers on their trucks have ever ridden before.

Every day I just wonder why I can't be as cool as all the guys who won't even wear a Corvette cap once in a while while driving their Corvette. Guess you're hip or you're not.
