I saw him heading up the hill and I pointed at his rig with my thumb up (a.k.a. flashing the FWC gang sign) as we passed.
He didn't really wave...but I saw this jaw open/agasp and that look of "hey...um...wah...yea...um....holy s*** that looks JUST LIKE MY TRUCK" on his face that was unmistakable.... :thumb:
nice looking rig...nyuk..nyuk...

So tell my why do I get so excited when I see a FWC or ATC on the road? Of course now I have to live with the indignity of my wife telling "hey just because they have a FWC why do you wave? If it were a Lance would you wave?"
My point is I know just how you feel. But at least Pam knows the difference between a FWC and a goiter I mean a Lance.

Now, I get the connection for me it was 1967: 912 1977: 930 Euro. the one I should have keptMany years ago when I had a few Porches it would drive me crazy when you would pass one and they would wave or flash their lights. At first i thought it was because I had a 356 Cabriolet and it was a bit rare. However the same was true when I had my 912 and 911 Targa. My wife asked why I didn't wave back. I said if I drove a Buick I wouldn't so whats the dif. Porches were like A$$ Hol3$ everybody had one.

Because FWC/ATC's are special. Porches not so much. You don't know if the other Porche driver is a big fan or a big douche trying to show off. They may have earned their money the hard way, or pushed mortgage securities on small banks. That other Porche might even be an....automatic.. *gasp*
BUT, you do know that the other FWC/ATC owner loves the outdoors and somehow stumbled upon the best camper/rig combo out there for those who really like to get out there. At least you have that much in common. And it's a small club, unlike car owners.
Now, just roaming around in a stock Land Cruiser (not stock for long though... bawahahha [evil laugh])

It depended which Porsche you had, when I had the 930, I didn't care what people thought, all they ever saw was the ass end anyway. As far as douche bags and 4 Wheel Campers go, I can say for sure that I know a DB who has one.

BTW, I never wave at the Lance's on the road because I always mistake 'em for a BUS! (not to mention that the guy is usally taking up half of my lane so I'm looking more at the ditch/for an exit point than his rig)
Ya know when ya see that slim profile it's an ATC or an FWC!

My wife always laughs at the Sugar-daddy's (it's Vail, after all) when they are sportin'/showing off their "50 thousand dollar Pen*s" (50K for Porsche...the Lambi's and the Ferraris get the more exclusive 100K tag...LOL)

However, no matter what it costs, after 25 years of seeing the part-time Richie-Rich's acting out as if they own the place in such vehics
--- I'm >>still<< not impressed!
As the saying goes around here...
"if you have to ask what it costs you can't really afford it..."
