I suggested the opposite to Scion in one of their surveys: Replace the analog speedometer with an oil pressure and battery voltage gauge cluster. Having both analog and digital speedometers is mindless, as we both apparently agree.

Errrr I have several pet peeves

1. Lifted brotrucks that pull up in front of me without mudflaps.

2. People closing my door with the window.

3. People honking at me when I'm trying to get up a steep driveway.

4. People needlessly slowing down or stopping on a steep hill (I swear they want me to stall or roll backwards).

5. Rubberneckers.

6. People who tell me to lower my car (I gots no money :'( )

7. Ricers who always mentions a friend to prove a point. For example, I just got headers and a tune and a ricer friend said "Look, I have many friends with 600 hp Evos that go super fast. Going straight quickly is cool and all, but the corners is really where its at. My friend once dusted an M3, with MPSS, with his acura rsx-s and he had all season tires. I beat my friend's 500 hp turbo s2k and 800 hp Evos with my car at the canyons all the time."

BMWs and their drivers who seem to think the road is theirs and we're trespassing. They also seem to think everyone else is trying to get to where they are going fist to lock the door and not let them in.

When driving in a group and some asshole thinks he's cool by cutting one of us off to join in.

Usually, its a guy in an SUV or truck.

This!! Absolutely irks me more than anything else at the gas station!

I was, however, able to laugh my head off at someone who did this, then came back to pump and realize the filler door was on the wrong side, so he pulled around to the other pump and STILL had the filler door on the wrong side! Karma, eh?

People changing lanes without giving indicator...specially in Toronto!!

People with Uhaul rental trucks in the left (fast) lane on expressway while doing 95kmph!!

And people thinking there car is too cool and they need 2 parking spots to park it!!

Mine are just normal respect for others vehicles. Don't lean on my shit or damage it and I won't lean or damage your shit. Pretty simple.

I have to admit, I will do that to grab a water or redbull or something (so like 2-3 minutes not to take a dump or anything like that).

However I'll only do it when the pumps are at least 75% empty, otherwise I move my car and then go in.

I'm one step in-between. I'll start the pump and then go in with it running..particularly with my Suburban that will take a half-hour to fill-up if empty!

Number 2! Just had a girl close the passenger side door with the window last night. F**king finger prints!

When someone grabs the window to get out of their seat.. I almost broke up with my girlfriend for that.
