See, I'm a true sandbagger...mostly because I don't like dealing with azzholes for no reason.

I would have answered "20 gallons today. Big trip. Usually just 5."

If the kids/adults/ whomever really had some sort of clue and are respectful, they'd laugh and start joking back.

I get asked all the time, even by bigger boats, "watchya' got in that thing." my standard answer is a rocket 350 with harley carb. They either walk away dumb or they laugh and join in. LOL.

It's my day off doing what I love to do. I like having a good time. Either have some fun with me or go away. Period.

I'm sure people judged the crap out of me when I pulled up in my 38 Cigarette and a brand new F350 when I was 23. Probably thinking look at this young punk in his daddy's boat, but not the case. It was mine.

On the water I never notice any judgment I seen rowboats parked right next to expensive boat and everyone seems to get along. Now in the car world I guarantee you'll never see a pinto parked next to a Ferrari.
