Default Got a thumbs down today????

Purple Stratus pulled up to me with four guys in it. Rolled down the window and they gave me a thumbs down. Then drove away. I actually thought it was funny. I laughed very hard.
But I wonder what it really means. They hate Hondas or s2000's. They hate foriegn cars? They hate suave looking guys in sweet looking sport cars . Its so idiotic it makes me smile ever time I think about it. Just wondering if the thumbs down has an exact meaning.


Actually the funniest part of the story is the purple Dodge Stratus!

Take it as a compliment. Take it from where it is coming. Nice to get a good laugh.

I've gotten thumbs up from Harlely riders, Japanese Crotch rocket riders, old classic car drivers; plus, the every day drivers. It's always cool to be acknowledged while driving.

Speaking of dodge stratus"es" i was driving the other night and this stratus comes almost rite into my lane while getting sideways. Then he thinks hes cool and flys past me. Me and my passenger are wondering what the hell the guys thinking. We pull up next to him and he casually looks over and flicks us off???We started laughing and casually drove away as soon as the light turned, there was no need to start anything.
