what do you say when

[Wattz]

What do your friends drive? Land barges? Sports cars? If you guys are in college and you're the only one driving an economy car, then you're the only one with your act straight. Make sure they know it when you're buying another beer and they're all out of money. Or, when you're taking your date to a nicer restaurant than they can.

Things like that stick out. You may be frugal with your vehicle, but it lets you enjoy the other things in life that much more.

Awesome point, and very true...people are dishing out $300 a month for their damn Escalades while i dish out $100 a month..more money to spend on friday nights and snowboarding days

haha i love this comment but it is way off (no offense) one has an 04 bmw 3 series is 33 and a recovered alcoholic and the other has a chevy s10 extreme that his dad gave him and a 1000 cbr and is a paramedic. to them it really isn't about the money otherwise the savings on gas and the car itself would have shut them up. they just have nothing else to rip on me about so they harp on how gay my yaris is for being small and goofy looking.

i've got some good advice here though so we'll see what happens tomorrow when i get together with them again.

I must consider myself lucky then. My friends like my car more than I do. (I wanted a Scion Tc or a Hyundai Tiburon, but the Yaris was a gift so what's not to like ). The only jokes I've recieve are from my GF cause she smokes me, then again she drives a BMW 335i Besides that she even likes to drive it cause its "fun to drive" she even learned to drive M/T on it.

After owning a Miata for the last 7yrs i've heard all the comments,at first it was amusing and i'd come back with some witty retort but now when some one puts the feminine designation to my car i just say F--- O--
