I had this dude in a silverado truck keep racing me and get so pissed off (he was drunk) that he was talking **** at the light and called my car a mustang.

Dude actually followed me into a gas station. I was yelling at dude and ****. It was funny kinda. Never seen somthing like that before.

Yea my own family keeps calling my car a Trans Am!..I have to always correct them. Maybe they just thought it was a Camaro because of the Transformers movies, so the name Camaro is going around a lot, even tho they look nothing alike. IDK, different people learn things differently.

People are ignorant and for most they know nothing about their car.

Try going into any pepboys, kragen, autozone etc... and telling them you have a Trans Am They give you that deer in the headlights look cause it is not in their computer. Then you have to tell them firebird then they ask 6 or 8 cylinder.

I usually feel like grabbing the computer from them and telling them to get out of my way.

When I asked for a new oil filter the conversation went like this:

Clerk: For what car?

Me: 2003 corvette Z06

Clerks: is it a V8?
