What is some of your Pet Peeve's

You must have REALLY had to go.

We're not British I don't believe.

There're only 3 great things that came out of Britain.

Scotch, the Rolling Stones and Americans.

Genesis, Pink Floyd, The Who, King Crimson. Don't forget MG's, Triumph, and the legendary Jaguar XKE. Oh, and Winston Churchill.

They're not known for great food, but I do enjoy bangers & mash, or a good Shepherd's pie.

Queen (the musicians not the monarch)!

Today's pet peeve:

Public bathrooms!

Or lack thereof. Way too many times I've been on the road and really needed to "go", only to find a "no public restrooms" sign at a gas station/convenience store. Always in a place where it didn't lend itself to a quick trip into the woods.

The worst is people with lift kits, which makes the situation even more uncontrollable for them. Some of the behavior I see really reveals their lack of driving skills and understanding of vehicle dynamics. I'd rather stay a mile away.

Don't see it much anymore, but back in the 90s it seemed to be a fad for 20something guys to rice out their 4 cyl tacomas with lift kit, oversize tires, roll bar and enough off-road lights to illuminate a small city. I don't know if the intent was to look stupid, but they succeeded.

Complete with "legendary" Lucas electrical systems.

Admittedly lagging behind USA or Germany at the time, but I'm an electrical engineer, Lucas don't scare me.

A couple of times I've seen F350 dually dumptrucks with serious lift kits. I'm not sure what it was meant to accomplish but it certainly looked stupid.

...it certainly looked stupid.

Mission accomplished!

Maybe they load there lifted 1 ton dumps with a cat 980? Lol, Anyways I remember when I owned a 1 ton 2wd at times I struggled to fully load it with a Kubota and a bf500 loader cause of bucket reach and lift height.
