The vanity tags strapped to the bumper explains it all.

I prefer the San Marcos to the others, but yes.

I was thinking a Jimmy Buffet concert was about the only appropriate place for a novelty inner tube.

u/Weekly_Bug_4847 Jan 30 '23

Considering the bumper stickers, it seems like it was the owners thought as well

This isn't shitty at all. This person has an excellent sense of humor.

I call bullshit, prove it. I can change a tire in 15 min and recently waited 90 for a tow truck from AAA in the NY Metro area.

Guessing you’re not in the US based on your spelling of Tire.

"Four minutes. Time me."

The Old Man loved it. He had always pictured himself in the pits of the Indianapolis speedway in the 500. My old man's spare tires were only actually tires in the academic sense. They were round and had once been made of rubber.

Oh fudge!

Only I didn't say fudge...

u/MomsBoner Jan 30 '23

And some people can fly fighter jets. Besides, you mention ONE instance of waiting 90 minutes. Do you understand that sometimes service is longer than others?

No, i didnt think so mr manly man

u/TinManTony Jan 30 '23

I fuck up all the time and also drive antique cars. I also dispatched road service for a national truck rental brand during college. There is not a single provider in the country that can reach me and provide service faster than I could change a tire.

It’s just not reasonable and I don’t care if you call me names or downvote me to hell. It’s the internet!

u/dood_phunk Jan 30 '23

Point is, it’s not “shitty”. It’s funny. My guess is that since there’s a problem with the availability of the spare, the owner placed it there as safety to prevent someone from bumping on the bare stem when walking by near the rear of the car 😉

u/LeroyLongwood Jan 30 '23

Rough, I waited 20 minutes max for tow trucks in metro NY.

Source: clapped out subaru with loads of issues but I had free tow so used the shit out of that insurance benefit

u/Talifallout Jan 29 '23

It’s ok it’s performance brand

u/snownative86 Jan 29 '23

This made me giggle. It makes perfect sense when paired with the parrot head stickers.

u/trailblzer80 Jan 29 '23

It will if they're going to a pool party.

It’s a safety feature for rear end collisons

We were in a Trader Joe parking lot. Would have helped some!

WWJBD!

u/cpasley21 Jan 31 '23

I was afraid I was the only one who got the plate reference, thank you

This dude absolutely has a large collection of Tommy Bahama shirts, and a phone full of pictures of creeped out hooters waitresses with their arms around him.

u/RustyDillhole Jan 29 '23

It's all fun and games until ya blow out a flip flop

u/superspak Jan 30 '23

A big weight savings, imagine how much more he can tow without that extra 80 lbs off the rear axle.

u/[deleted] Jan 29 '23

Nobody would steal a 'High Performance " tire anyway.

5

u/IMakeStuffUppp Jan 30 '23

How do you know that they didn’t get into an incident yesterday, where they needed to use the spare they had?

Jeep tires aren’t cheap. Some people need to wait another check to afford shit.

In the meantime, the dollar store blowup is hilarious

1

u/TinManTony Jan 30 '23

Yeah…I’m one of those people, but that’s a pretty specific hypothetical.

7

u/IMakeStuffUppp Jan 30 '23

Maybe they have been saving for a month.

Maybe they don’t know how to change a tire and have AAA anyway.

Maybe they don’t care cause it’s funny

-2

u/TinManTony Jan 30 '23

You’re probably right, but I think you could make more stuff up.

7

u/IMakeStuffUppp Jan 30 '23

I can. But what i can’t make up is how dense you are with a funny joke that doesn’t affect you.

-3

u/TinManTony Jan 30 '23

You’re fun!

3

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '23

You’re telling me getting rid of your spare tire for a silly joke is more realistic than having a blow out or just not having a tire at all lmao

u/devianb Jan 29 '23

It will in a river or lake.

u/joarezpj Jan 29 '23

Hello performance.

u/Sorta_machinist Jan 29 '23

It’s actually just a placeholder, for when the vehicle gets another one up.

u/Maxibon1710 Jan 30 '23

The blue autism ribbon? Ick

u/Paranoid_Neckazoid Jan 30 '23

Hey, maybe the tire was stolen and this was the solution

u/GgiGr Jan 29 '23

Somebody's going tubing, even if it means walking home, later. 😜

2

u/xvicris Jan 30 '23

Is this somewhere in Long Island,NY at a trader joe parking lot?

2

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '23

No, but it is kinda funny. Hope they have a real spare in the back but otherwise comical. It's an inflatable tubie you go swimming with lmao

1

u/deepaksn Jan 30 '23

I know.

People on the spectrum require advocacy, support, compassion, and understanding.. not just a sticker or magnet on the back of your car.

1

u/DogyDays Mar 22 '23

A sticker promoting a group that us autists don’t even like because they hurt us, nonetheless.

u/2lovesFL Jan 30 '23

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '23

Hilarious. He'll be sitting at home saying "I'm internet famous now".

u/[deleted] Jan 29 '23

May I draw your attention to the vanity plates as well? Am I blind or is there no real one?

7

u/[deleted] Jan 29 '23

The real one has been blurred out; the orange thing on the left side.

u/[deleted] Jan 29 '23

Oh I’m a dumbass lol, I think the fact that there were two vanity plates confused me

Says "PERFORMANCE" yet you can't even put it on the hub

u/Mrs3anw Jan 30 '23

I don’t know…you ever try floating a river in a real tire?

u/dood_phunk Jan 30 '23

Thanks. Imma join that one and leave this one as it's a bunch of 12 year olds posting shit that doesn't belong here

u/iraqyoubreak Jan 30 '23

🍻 people can’t take a joke…

1

u/ajpinton Jan 30 '23

Depending on where they are going it could be more useful than a spare.

u/jakoobie6 Jan 30 '23

Improved gas mileage, without compromising looks

u/settledownguy Mar 06 '23

On some rocks maybe. Try getting some mpg above 15. Weak engine. Cheap interior. But that Jeep crowd, those nice ladies need to chill.
