Unhappy Taco Bell Event

The time: 12:30am
The place: Taco Bell (Irving Texas)
The crime: Drive-thru guy ased my if my Z was an eclipse?!?

I kinda didn't say anything for a bit (shock does that to you). Then I said, with a playful attitude, no its a 350z, its the car that Eclipse owners wish they had (insert laugh here, just in case he drove an eclipse). I was driving home thinking how does someone get these two cars mixed up, then I passed by a new eclipse. I could see how, from a drive-thru window, the roof line looks similar. Anywho hope at least one person found this as amusing as I did.

I find it amusing!! My friend tells me the same thing though. Says the rear end looks like my cars rear. Maybe if you have one eye closed in a rain storm at night it looks like a Z. Oh well, Not every one is a true car enthusiast like most of us. SOme people just dont get it. My girl friend is one. We were watching a movie and a Toyota Prius was on the screen and she goes, "see my car is cool, they used it in this movie" Keep in mind she drives a Ford Focus. hahaha I still love her. BEN

Come on man, dont be hatin on our economies fast food segment. Without them, garbage men, gas station clerks, etc, our lives would suck. We would all be riding bikes around with an empty stomach, dodging stinky garbage cans all the time. Peace, BEN

I don't like people who think they are better than everyone else. I used to work at Pizza Hut, and a bunch of odd jobs. So what, maybe the kid was 16 working his first job.

PS I know you were joking, but if you wernt then to the burning fires of hell with you.

That's the one I get most often. Even though the Nissan badges are like all over the place and rather large...
