Default Maybe I'm overreacting... How would you feel?

I know I'm gonna probably get a lot of ppl telling me to forget it but I can't help but to feel a little frustrated. I have a black platinum with a 6" lift and black fuel 20" wheels on 35's. Had it since May. I live in a tiny town, in fact I've only seen two other 2015's to date here. I frequently park outside the garage, and today, I look up and a 15' black (lariat), with 6" lift, black 20's on 35's pulls into my drive way only to back up and go away. You may call me silly (or worse), but there are 11 driveways on my street. Lol so I can't help but to take this a bit personal. I try hard to not be the exact same as others. so it bothers me to feel deliberately copied. If not "challenged" in a way. I know there is nothing I can do about it and don't care to. Just wondering if others feel disappointed to see another truck almost the same as yours around town? Or do you feel proud that ppl appreciate your taste? Again, ppl, please don't slaughter me over this. Just a new topic.

I'd put some spike strips in your driveway if I was you. Let others find some place else to turn around.

To let yourself in your driveway, keep a remote of course to lower the spikes.

Well you purchased the top selling vehicle in the U.S. They're already a dime a dozen around here. Don't expect your unique creation to remain unique very long. take it as a compliment. Imitation is the sincerest form a flattery, right?

Funny - my neighbor copied my landscaping - he's right next to me. Same shape grass, same Pygmy Palm, etc. etc.. If it wasn't for our different cars - I may end up pulling into his driveway.

Just means you have good taste. Don't take it negatively.

You are incredibly insecure-seek help. That is not a joke.

Haha, yeah yeah. Didn't say I was "unique". For this area, it is not common. Can see where this is going. Thanks, I get it. Lol. Answer: Overreacting.

Yeah 20" fuel wheels with 35's. 6" lift. Mind blowing you'd see another one like that. Stay away from dealership lots, I think my nearest dealer has half a dozen trucks built exactly that way.
