That musr explain the shitty drivers we have here in Colorado Springs. MCI is a major employer here in the Springs and you can drive I-25 between Denver and Colo Spgs and you have a few of these Volvo/Saab/BMW drivers who park it in the left lane doing about 55 to 60 mph even though the speed limit is 75 mph. Most of the people that work at MCI are from the DC/MD/VA Beltway area. I also worked there for a short time and I dealt with some of the most arrogant people. The people I worked with who were from the beltway prided themselves on being "cultured" and thinking of themselves as being so wonderful. They were the kind of people who would look down on you if you don't drive a yuppie type of car. I had a Mustang and several of them made comments that it was a car for immature people and they called it a redneck car. Yuppie Dickheads !
