Yes, today i drove a holden.

And what i found most interesting is that i found most ford drivers to be complete tossers..

Am I normaly like this ?

when im in my fairlane no one tail gates me, and no one pretends i'm not even on the road.

Today in my sisters holden, there were situations where i couldnt even slide a cigarette paper between this car and an overtaker/tailgater.

why is there so much hostility??

In all my ford driving years ive never seen such bad attitude drivers as today when i drove a holden.

Whats the deal people?

Maybe it was just a bad day, I can't see guys actually having a go at you while you are driving. Hell, we even get waves from guys driving Commodores when we are in the XR. Even from dudes in Clubbies!

Thats coz XR's are hot man. ford designers got that car spot on. It's a beutiful piece of machinery. I want 1!!

I generally find Commo drivers the worst for aggro driving but everyone loves the Juice so I get nothing but thumbs up from everyone except the EPA

An old bloke in a standard looking commodore tried to run me and my XF off the road once because I was looking at his alloys....

Holden drivers always acost me everywhere i go.

They seem to get realy upset if you eyeball something they have done to their car.....

Whats with that?

I drive a holden (VT commode) most of the time .. I don't get much grief from anyone... maybe it's the scowl on my face !

Hmm, I thought it was the firearms visible on the inside of the roof, parcel shelf, and dash?

Seriously though, when it comes to aggressive or bad attitudes, from what I have experienced it generally comes down to your driving style / courtesy / common sense. The only exception to this rule is if you are a FullSchickMoit(tm) riceboy, in which case you deserve any and all negative attention.

I do 1000km a week in an L300 service vehicle and tossers drive anything.
