Do people make fun of you for driving an aveo?

[Thymeclock]

Of course everybody makes fun of the Aveo! I even do when I am driving my Aveo and see one on the road. My response is always the same "Damn, that's a small car and I drive that?" However sitting in my Aveo I feel like a zillion bucks as I zip around everybody.

Apparently this is an aspect of youth. When you get older and you and your friends no longer care about such things, it will pass.

As for zipping around everybody, and usually being able to get ahead of them - you are correct. I can do that in any car that I'm driving. Because it's not about the car. It's all about the driver.

That is what she said! I will say it's easier in the small car than my small truck depending how close you want to squeeze things. NC, SC, and GA are awful for drivers to sit in the left lane and there are moments when my patience gets the best of me. sigh The universe keeps giving me opportunities to learn patience and I continue to ignore them. Double sigh

For the speed you drive that depends on person, but for the movement like turn left and right that is mostly depends on the car, small car is much easy to turn. If you drive a bigger and longer car, you must move to the front more then you can turn.

This is what I have an experience on driving a "D" class car, for Aveo to turn left that is more easy, but last time I drive a biggest car, I turn left and drive to the bollard

I'm wondering who the "she" is in your life who said that.

I'm in NY. I've driven all over the USA and Canada. If you can drive on NYC highways you can drive anywhere on earth. Driving skills are not about the car. It's all about the driver.

Let 'em laugh. Maybe you have outgrown those types of "friends". Then you will smile and ignore them.

How many times have I heard...".you drive an aveeno."... isn't that body lotion?

You might think to yourself "you sound like an a-hole". Of course you won't actually say that, but they might forever BE it.

I guess, in a passive-aggressive way, I could have some fun with the person and say; "Yes, Aveo n Aveeno are made by the same company. They both have olive oil and vitamin E in the formula, hence the "o", but Aveeno, with the "n", has 2x vitamin E and coconut oil for really dry skin....but I won't!

LOL I use aveeno shave cream. It's about the best shaving cream for no smell and easy on the face.

There you have it; Aveeno puts a smile on ones face after a shave and Aveo brings back the smile after a fill -up at the pump....

At my age n maturity level, I revel in the notion that I don't care what others think of what I drive. I drive a Korean car, married a Malaysian women, and best of all......I'm happy with both!
