It's not just cars. I was out on my Ducati Monster a few years ago and had someone ask "how I liked my Harley". Really?? The closest thing to a Harley-Davidson that you could possible confuse with a Monster would be one of the Buell models, and only if a) the light was bad, b) you squinted your eyes just right, and c) you were a freaking moron.

Wow, that Kia is ugly! @.@ It looks like a kitchen appliance.

Ha, I used to get that all the time when I drove Jeeps. But I would clearly point out to them that their vehicle wasn't a Jeep and couldn't come close to competing......

I wouldn't say there is NOTHING that can compete with a Wrangler. My SAMURAI embarased a few of them in its day.

My friend has a "Samurai" that he competes with that is basically only the shell on top of a 402 and custom frame. But their isn't a street legal Samurai that could touch my 02 Wrangler with an LS1, 8" Skyjacker +2"body, 37x13.5 tires Dana 44 front and Dana 60 rear. After I got out the Navy I just couldn't afford the up keep so I bought my 08 Rubicon that I ended up trading in for my 09 MCS. Don't miss it one bit......
