Default Anyone have a Viper-jealous friend?

Wonder if anyone has a similar experience to mine.
An old friend contacted my through one of those 'find and old high school friend' on-line deals. We traded e-mail a few times and caught up for the last 15 or so yrs. we'd been out of touch. All was cool until...I sent a pic of my GTS. The next e-mail I got was him spouting off about me showing off, etc.
All of the sudden he's all "I could buy one, too, you know." "My brother has a Prowler", blah, blah, blah.
Too bad, he used to be a decent guy. What makes someone like that tick?

His brother has a Prowler, his old school buddy has a GTS. I'd be jealous too

Yes.

You have a nice Car.

His Brother has a nice Car.




...and he is maybe just living in his Trailer.





Here in Europe you get many of those experiences. People dont like when you show what you have worked for... especially when you are young(er).
When i got my new GTS at the age of 20 3/4 i heard many hatred comments.

Give a sh*t what other People think or say... you are the one that bought a Viper from his self earned Money.

On other sites I hear a lot of “I don’t hate Vipers, I just hate their owners”.

They hate the owners because we have one and they don’t. You really can’t blame folks for feeling that way though . If I ever saw an Enzo going down the road I would instantly not like the guy driving it because he has one and I don’t.

amazing how that works eh? CONGRATULATIONS.

your party friends will NEVER call you a hard worker though will they?

in their minds, you will always be known as "lucky". (pet pieve #17).

And I thought me buying my RT/10 at 23 was a young age for a Viper. I guess i'm older than I thought

That's great. I work with so many "kids" your age (33 myself), and most of them are lazy and think they deserve to live like rap stars.

Keep at it! I'm only jealous you had more in you than I did at your age.

Thanks for the kind words guys... But you know the real fun started after I turned 21 and was able to get into bars. There's nothing like showing up and parking your Viper right in front for all the ladies to see....
