What car TICKS YOU OFF on the interstate? ;)
For me, it's the Ford Ranger. These trucks are always in a poor state of repair but somehow still running. They always feature two "work dudes" who are way more interested in maintaining their conversation than realizing they are going under the speed limit and impeding the flow of traffic. Nobody in the history of the world has ever driven a Ranger above 70mph.
There's also militant truckers. 95% of truck drivers are really nice, as it's their job to be on the road. They are used to traffic, construction, and other drama that life throws in their way. The other 5% are impatient road ragers that won't hesitate to use their 70,000 pound mass to intimidate traffic, block lanes before they end, and enforce their own version of the law on the interstate.
That's life in Tennessee in 2014. What is it like in your neck of the woods?

I was in a Ranger that was going 90 once. It was terrifying. I also drove that same truck when I was picking up a motor for parts for my old VIII... I drove below 70 with the engine in the back.
I can't really pick a specific car, but anything Toyota and commuter-y is near the top of the list. ****ers like to cruise at the speed limit or just under, and if I'm in my DD GLI I'm probably getting nearly the same MPG at 10mph faster, until they make me slow down and wait for an opportunity to pass or mercilessly tailgate them until they get into their proper lane.
