Popular Post Tom King Posted August 16, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 I told her to get something not so conspicuous. She said, "Nobody knows what a Maclaren is." We used to joke (not so much of a joke) that out here was not the Middle of Nowhere, but the outer edge, past the middle. This is getting too normal for around here now. Seen in the Lake Gaston Food Lion parking lot today. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom King Posted August 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 That's the only grocery store we have out here. We used to have to drive 20 miles to town to go to a grocery store. I hear that this one turns more dollars than any other Food Lion. I'm sure it does in the Summer time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chestnut Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 The trouble with a car like that is you get too much attention from all the wrong types of people. You'll be surrounded by teenage and early 20s guys that will drool over it endlessly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pkinneb Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 That is a sweet ride but at the grocery store and not even at the back of the lot!! That's just wrong LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Around here, cars like that are most often parked diagonally to occupy 4 spaces, as the owners are afraid of door dings, but too lazy to walk from the far side of the lot. Or they park illegally in an extra-wide handicap spot. Jerks. I once watched a guy in a porsche berate a young lady for parking in a handicap space at the grocery, then when she moved, he took the spot, got out of the car, and JOGGED into the store. No handicap tag or placard. He came really close to having a truck bumper shaped impression on his driver door when I left.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom King Posted August 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 That was in a handicapped space. Some old lady in an old minivan, who was handicapped, came and parked next to it, over the line on the McClaren side of that line. I had a good laugh at that. She never even looked at that car. I was parked near it, waiting for Pam to come out. We left before whoever was driving it came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstonboy Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Hey, sounds like your girlfriend scored herself a sweet ride! McLaren, huh? That's some next-level stuff right there. Can't blame her for wanting to stand out a bit. And hey, who cares if it's not so inconspicuous? If she's loving it, that's all that matters! Oh, and speaking of rides, when I was moving to another state, A-1 Auto Transport was my go-to for shipping my wheels. Made the whole process a breeze, man.Anyway, hope she enjoys cruising around in her new McLaren. Bet she'll turn heads wherever she goes.

comp56 Posted March 3 Report Share Posted March 3 That's quite the gift, she's lucky to have someone who'd gift her a McLaren! Those cars are no joke on the road. I've been toying with the idea of getting one myself from overseas. Been browsing through options and considering the right color and model year. Haven't made up my mind yet, though. Besides, I still can't choose between McLauren and a Tesla. I actually found a Tesla and the guys from https://www.a1autotransport.com/ promised me a quick international delivery, but I still have some doubts over the car model. Curious, what made you go for that particular model? Might help me decide on mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
