Top 10 reasons why NOT to drive the Cobra to work..
..........
|
Setting off every car alarm in the parking garage...
|
No work done because your "Running" to the parking lot every 10 minutes to check on "Your Baby!!"
|
You have a small block Cobra and you know ol' Bandit will be at work in a big block Cobra...;)
|
It's tough to plead poverty and ask for a raise when you're driving one of those cars...
|
You get several interruptions from people who want to "go to lunch" if you drive.
And You have several people asking if it is yours and who hit it ( a joke you can not ignore and find yourself running out to check ) And An email starts, from your boss, asking who owns the "sports car" and now you have to explain that you are not "moonlighting" at Fords ( you work at GM ) to afford a car of this type. And There is the comments of, "What's wrong with one of our cars? Huh? You couldn't own a GM???" Last "You can't park that here." from the security guard, so you have to walk from the "NON-GM car lot." Just few. |

For me setting off every car alarm is a reason to drive the Cobra to work and not a reason not to bring the car!
I NEVER get in a full day when the car is here. Rick |
I drove mine today, and parked it in the warehouse, because it was becoming too distracting to the road crew workers that are working out in front of our facility!!
Now I just have to worry about a stray forklift driver....... Russ |
Because your insurance policy expressly mentions not driving your Cobra to work (Parish-Heacock).
Good thing my employer occasionally has car shows! |
I am the boss, I like setting car alarms off, and I like to take my employees out to the covered garage I had built for it in the otherwise open lot so they can tell me how freeking cool my car is.
|
Because it is freaking 104* yesterday and I would roast like a pig in a bbq in stop and go city driving. Otherwise, I can see it outside in the lot easy enough, had the car before I went to work here and the bosses love the car, don't give a rat's pahooty if I set off everyone elses alarm since they go off a couple times a day anyway.
Hmm, only one reason not to drive it to work. Guess I'll have to go around town. |
For me,an average day at work consists of at least 200 to sometimes 300 miles of driving,that's the good,the bad is I make anywhere from 5 to 10 stops and at everyone I usually have people come out to the car and ask a bunch of questions and sometimes ask for a ride........
I don't really mind the questions or even taking someone for a ride (especailly the nice looking ladies),but on some occasions I'm running late and in a hurry and then I try to be as polite as possible and leave as soon as I can to get back on schedule............ David |
... It messes up your hair and ... wait, I don't have that much hair!:(
How about, everyone wonders why you have that big grin on your face.:D or Your wife doesn't like that fact that you seem to come home later on the days that you drive your Cobra!:cool: |
Because the grass monkeys (As my brother so aptly puts it!!) that cut the grass where you work might decide to use your car as a place to blow all of the leaves in the parking lot. Yes it happend. Bleeping Morons. No more driving to work on Mondays.
|
....because it is very dusty here at work, where I park my car. Even with the cover on the Cobra, dust gets everywhere.
Also, the boss is a Big GM fan; when I bring the Cobra to work, he doesnt talk to me for the whole shift...........Wait, that's a GOOD thing!!! lol !!! |
Because I work right next to the district court, and lots of cops crawling around all day. How do I leave the parking lot quietly?? :D
Steve |
They don't do real well off of paved roads, ground clearance is an issue driving to a home building site, let alone the mud or dust
|
Because when I visit with people in their offices, they tend to move away or closer, depending on how much they like the hydrocarbon cologne. It's usually the men that get closer!
