Re: [DML] Displaying Our Cars

What does being a westerner have to do with being respectful of other peoples property? As an easterner i find that insulting, but coming from the west, I'm not surprised. Come to NJ, we'll show you some politeness and tolerance.

The number of rude, unthinking individuals I have encountered can be counted on one hand and none of those caused any damage other than fingerprints. And, let's face it, folks, the first time you saw a DeLorean you probably ran your hands/fingers over the surface to see if you could feel the graining. I know I did. And that's the very reason others do it.

I can only recall perhaps a handful of incidents where somebody was disrespectful of the car or abusive towards me. I guess that we grow "them" differently up here in the Pacific Northwest. Granted, I have had a few folks jump in and have a friend snap a quick picture when they think that I am not looking, but there has never been any damage or mischief to speak of. Most of the time people will ask politely if they can sit in the car, and many people ask for permission just to take a picture of it on display. Maybe all of the rain up here washes away the rudeness? Fascinating.
