I dated a woman who drove a Journey. Her kids were named Logyn (which is Logan, but to me looks like login) and Cera. She also refers to herself as "momma bear". That relationship didn't last long.
Except when you stomp on the gas you still get high rpms. A transmission with more gears just allows your engine to stay at a more optimal spot for efficiency when cruising, and a more optimal spot for power when accelerating.
I'm a mechanic and used to work at a Chrysler dealer, can confirm. Half of the owners smoke in their cars and are either too broke or too cheap to do the recommended maintenance.
These days, yeah, but in the 90s I loved my mk1 Neon, it drove well, was good on gas, and had thoughtful features, like a tissue dispenser in the center console. For a bargain bin model, it punched above its weight. Sadly the transaxle was shit. I replaced the transmission once and at head gasket number 3 I was done.
The Neon is getting so rare now due to all of them getting completely thrashed that soon it’s going to be like the Chevette is today, a cult classic known for it’s shittiness
My company tried to give me one as the full time company car, I took it out a few times. That thing needed to make an appointment to get on a highway, it was the slowest most pathetic sounding car I’ve ever driven.
I saw an early 00's Tahoe at a gas station the other day. Trash piled up everywhere except the drivers seat, to head height. The passenger side doors were chained shut, the windows were cracked open and I could hear a dog barking from somewhere inside. Old greasy looking guy with a long gray ponytail came out, got in and drove away. I wanted to report him for animal abuse, holy hell.
Any level of Carbage at all. Take the empty cups out, grab that receipt out of the door pocket, and put them in the trash when you exit the vehicle. Grab a vacuum and clean the seats and carpets a couple times a year.
For most people a car is a major purchase and yet they treat it like a trash can.

Also the Cadillac where the twilight assembly contains 300 LEDs in a generic shaped assembly.

2nd gen Dodge Durango.
No one buys one because they wanted one. You have one because either you couldn't afford anything else or you inherited it somehow.
i stopped reading the comment at oldsmobile alero😭, but gm 3.8’s are so good if i ever needed a cheap car to go to work im finding an old buick for sure
In my area almost every GM car that’s 10+ years old looks like it’s been rode hard and put up wet. That is, EXCEPT for the guy a few blocks from me who has a bright orange Grand Prix on like, 21s. It’s ridiculous but it’s clean.
Non-GM competitors for trashy trash award: Altima, Charger, Patriot.
Any late model, highly-depreciated “luxury SUV”, Navigator, Escalade, Yukon, X5, Cayenne etc. Half the electronics don’t work, air suspension has left the chat, leather ripped and torn, and they may or may not be making monthly payments on the rims.
Ain’t nobody fooled by your rolling pile.
So many kids in my suburb who do this. They could’ve gotten a couple years old decent starter car or a reliable Toyota or Honda but instead it’s a 10-15 year old base model bmw or Mercedes. “Look at muh BMW!!! I’m a member of the club!!”
Netherlands:
-Any Seat
-Mercedes A class and CLA, always a base engine with AMG package and panoramic roof.
-Old BMW, mainly 1 series, 3 series sedan and coupe. Also 5 series sedan.
-Saab 9-3, surprisingly. It's just trash people disguised as academic people in those cars. Trash drivers that don't give any room and have to beat you to the traffic light, even if it's the last thing they'll do.
Do Dutch BMW drivers have the same bad reputation as their American counterparts? Over here we like to joke about BMW drivers not using their turn signals and just being overall reckless
Yes also very true here. New and old actually. I wonder if it's the car that invites to this driving style or it's a certain type of people that drive them.
The 1-5 series I can handle. But it's the X5s iX3s and XM that really push you off the road in a threatening way. When they're behind me, I can't even see their windshield in my rear view mirror. The only thing I see is their grill and the headlights.
I love my Impala, granny mobile 💜 although I see them everywhere, every block. Rusted, loud, etc. Couldn’t care less about that, cause mines is well taken care of with 189k miles 🥰🥰
Pontiac Grand Prix,2000s Chevy Impala, Chevy Cavalier/Cobalt/Aveo, Saturn of any sort. Also Dodge Neons, Stratus, Intrepids. Some fords of a similar vintage like the Taurus but Ford's seem to be less trashy than GM and Mopar products at least locally.
Tldr: Any Big 3 small/mid-sized car from 15-20 years ago that's beat up. all mostly meth/crackhead cars.
Bro, my foreman has a Ram for both his personal and work truck. Our company’s name plastered on the side, nearly running people over every morning. We had a job with a two hour commute so I asked if we could ride together, after a week I told him I would drive myself. I can only imagine how fucking insane he is in his personal truck.
I, along with many people, still call them a Dodge Ram. They're made with the cheapest parts possible made in the cheapest way possible. So, the majority of people that buy them are people that can't afford anything else.
If you see anyone drive a Dodge Ram 2500 is basically a massive red flag for being a huge asshole. They think the 1500 isn't manly enough and the 3500 is too expensive. The same goes for Ford and Chevy, but Dodges are the biggest assholes. The 2500 is a work truck, but the majority that legitimately need a truck for work buy the 3500. The majority of people buying the 2500 have masculine insecurity issues. There are exceptions to every rule, but this is true on the whole.
Nissan altime. Holy hell its like every person that owns them has 100 credit score and is trying to get the high score in gta for hit&runs.
Always have long ass nails too
Chrysler 300, Chrysler 200, Nissan Altima, Nissan Maxima, Nissan Sentra, Nissan Versa, Toyota Prius C, Dodge Charger Scat Pack to Hellcat, Dodge Challenger Scat Pack to Hellcat, Lamborghini Aventador, and the Tesla Model 3.
Ten year old bmw. Homeboy just got his taxes. He's really proud of it. Unfortunately, he bought it at a buy here pay here, and once the oil pump gives out it's gonna sit on his lawn for 3 years.
Someone i used to work with had one like that. He wanted everything he had just for the image and prestige he thought it had. He lived in a condo in the Hancock Tower in Chicago (we worked in the suburbs on the other side of O'Hare) and had a used BMW, not quite sure how old it was. I rode with him to lunch one time and one of the side curtain airbags was hanging out a little.
I like my 2011 Impala. It’s been well maintained and kept super clean its entire life. Not particularly fast, fuel efficient, or fun, but it’s roomy and comfortable. Great highway commuter.
My 2010 comes with a whopping 2 cup holders, one of which is smaller than the other. Also needs a strap wrench whenever I get the oil changed, and my actuators tend to fail every couple of years, but those are all minor gripes really; better than having any major failures.
Driving is pretty comfortable. The pedals aren’t overly sensitive, so you can fine tune your speed really easily. First time I drove my girlfriend’s Highlander, I was shocked at how I barely had to touch the pedal to get up to speed. The brakes were also sensitive, which made for uncomfortable stops at times.
An oversized suv driven by a 5’0” Karen
Any type will do
Its trashy but because they live in McMansions and married a six figure man it’s…
Not trashy?
Fuck your consumerism
No car screams "trashy" we're all doing the best we can and presumably driving the best we can afford.
There are two things that are however "trashy" holding someone's choice of vehicle against them and judging them (one way or the other) by it. Also, neglecting the vehicle you depend on is also "trashy" treat it like your life may depend on it, because it might.
Dodge Journey
The last car to ever be sold with a 4-speed auto in North America……in 2021
It’s like if bad parenting were a car. The Journey is that mom who smokes while she’s pregnant and hits her kids in front of people at Walmart.
And named her daughter Journee.
Jhyrrneigh
I dated a woman who drove a Journey. Her kids were named Logyn (which is Logan, but to me looks like login) and Cera. She also refers to herself as "momma bear". That relationship didn't last long.
This woman 100% puts her kids’ names and birthdays in all of her social media bios. Logyn Leigh 💕 6/6/16 💕 Mama bear’s little angle 😇👼🥰
The 'angle' is the best part.
Live, Laugh, Jhyrrneigh
r/tragedeigh
I just delivered a DoorDash to a girl named Juurnee. Of course she didn’t tip lol.
Actually know someone with a daughter named Jurnee.
God dammit, I said the Jim Beam!
Wow that come with a cassette player too?
Holy shit, a 4-speed auto in 2021 lol
WHYYYYYY
My cutlass was an auto 3 speed. Those cars weren’t nearly as terrible as the journey. Journeys are just really terrible.
Unpopular opinion I love 4 speed autos in shitbox cars, less speeds means higher revs while driving the speed limit which to me means more fun
I also love the feeling of my fuel consumption skyrocketing.
Except when you stomp on the gas you still get high rpms. A transmission with more gears just allows your engine to stay at a more optimal spot for efficiency when cruising, and a more optimal spot for power when accelerating.
I'm a mechanic and used to work at a Chrysler dealer, can confirm. Half of the owners smoke in their cars and are either too broke or too cheap to do the recommended maintenance.
They’re all covered in dust, rust, and faded paint too.
I was between the Journey and Neon
As a former driver of a dodge neon, I can confidently say that those cars are absolute garbage
These days, yeah, but in the 90s I loved my mk1 Neon, it drove well, was good on gas, and had thoughtful features, like a tissue dispenser in the center console. For a bargain bin model, it punched above its weight. Sadly the transaxle was shit. I replaced the transmission once and at head gasket number 3 I was done.

Knew a girl with a Dodge Journey, they had water stuck in the ceiling of the car.
Any beat-up vehicle where you can see bags, clothes, any "carbage" stacked up to the windows or higher.
I saw an early 00's Tahoe at a gas station the other day. Trash piled up everywhere except the drivers seat, to head height. The passenger side doors were chained shut, the windows were cracked open and I could hear a dog barking from somewhere inside. Old greasy looking guy with a long gray ponytail came out, got in and drove away. I wanted to report him for animal abuse, holy hell.
He had the windows cracked because he was afraid someone was going to steal his trash. After all, that man's trash is his treasure.
thats a mental health issue at that point. guy needs help not his dog taken away.
This. Anyone driving around with head high trash is definitely a mental case fr
Any level of Carbage at all. Take the empty cups out, grab that receipt out of the door pocket, and put them in the trash when you exit the vehicle. Grab a vacuum and clean the seats and carpets a couple times a year. For most people a car is a major purchase and yet they treat it like a trash can.
I saw a Kia Soul in Gardena with carbage so tall that it blocked the front passenger side window.
I read that as "cabbage" and was wondering why you were picking on those poor farmers, or cole slaw enthusiasts.
r/carbage
Shit, that's currently my F-150! (I'm moving that's why)
Old, raggedy luxury vehicles.
Yep, hood Cadillacs
Cadillac with the missing piece of plastic between the rear fender and twilight. Also the Cadillac where the twilight assembly contains 300 LEDs in a generic shaped assembly.
Eldorados were notorious for this.
Yes!
Nissan Altima, hands down.
Nissan Altima, the S Class of the ghetto.
The S class is a busted W220
9 times out of 10 when someone almost T bones me they’re driving an Altima
How often are you getting T boned?
I’ve never been in an accident, but I’ve had a few close calls.
Next time you’re on the road, play “find the Nissan Altima with completely unscathed bumpers.”
That's not a game, that's an exercise in futility.
And both side mirrors
This — and Dodge Chargers as #2
Chargers in my town just scream "I'm enlisted and just got back from deployment with a bonus to spend"
Life would be so easy as a Dodge salesman in a base town
I have 5 bases.....oh and Ford Raptors are officers or senior enlisted.
As a vet, I remember when that used to be Mustangs
Jacksonville NC has entered the chat….lol
Dodge Avenger
The amount of Avengers on the road has decreased sharply in my area in the last few years. They‘ve either been replaced by Altimas or Rogues.
There is an Avenger parked next to me in my parking lot with a serious case of cataracts. Usually with a Byryder sticker affixed, along with the aforementioned Journey.
What car is trashy, not the drivers lol
Early 2000s Buck LeSabers are like the official car of heroin addiction
But have an extremely reliable v6

Yes, immediately thought of Pontiac Sunfire
dodge avenger. every one i see is completely beat.
Any dodge that isn't either brand new or 50+ years old
Does it count if it’s 41 years old and a Shelby?
2nd gen Dodge Durango. No one buys one because they wanted one. You have one because either you couldn't afford anything else or you inherited it somehow.
I can’t stand those vehicles, it’s such a shame because the first Gen Durango’s were genuinely quite good vehicles, and one of the first 3 row suvs
Chevy Suburban, "Am I a joke to you?" 1935, btw.
Yeah, they’re ugly, they rust like hell, and they’re always driven by a-holes.
I’ll also give a nod to the Chrysler aspen
V6 Chargers and Challengers...especially with "loud" exhausts! and of course the Nissan Altima.
Top 3 1. Nissan Altima 2. Oldsmobile Alero 3. Pontiac Bonneville
I’ll see your Bonneville and raise you a Sunfire

I agree with this but the term “late model” means recent, not old.
So many kids in my suburb who do this. They could’ve gotten a couple years old decent starter car or a reliable Toyota or Honda but instead it’s a 10-15 year old base model bmw or Mercedes. “Look at muh BMW!!! I’m a member of the club!!”
