Not me. I do morning Coffee runs for a few people every other morning (as a favor, not as my job, lol). However, to fix the issue of the lack of cup holders, I coerce someone to come with me and hold everything. So imagine a dude freaking out trying to balance 6 drinks in a small cup holder, struggling not to spill anything as I make sharp turns

Your windows will sometimes roll down all on their own without having to hit that pesky switch. Mind control?

Laughing as the guy in the diesel tries to "race" you up the hill climb onto the Interstate, goes from 35-70 in about 200 yards, and take off, opening up several car lengths, only to shut it down at the speed limit and three seconds later he comes roaring by looking like he won the Daytona 500. Happens twice a week at least. Also, I do not condone street racing, which this most definitely is not, I just like fast acceleration, I accelerate like that there every morning.

Considering the fact that they pull the slow down, let me catch up, accelerate, slow down let me catch up, accelerate, you get the drift, routine I'm pretty sure that those are their intentions...

Kind of two fold, the feeling of pulling up somewbere and a group of tiny hineys admiring your car as you park but can't see who is driving because of tint.

Flipside, the look you get from same group as you open door and a bald headed old fart takes 5 minutes to get out of car.
