Am I alone here?

Does anyone else talk to their car when they drive? It just occurred to me earlier that maybe it was wierd. . .

Sometimes when i'm fake racing somebody (ie I accelerate hard while the other driver is unaware of whats happening) I say stuff like 'come on buddy, lets show this ese how to race' or something.

When I was driving the Neon I never talked to it, just cursed at it. The Saturn however, gets a few thank you's a day for getting me where I need to go and not complaining

Good to know I've not gone of the deep end. . . or at least I'm not alone there.

I talk to Sophie all the time. She gets disciplined when she's bad, and she gets rewarded when she's good.

if I count these as real races, I've beaten a few Firebirds, Corvettes, and even a Gallardo

No, I don't talk to machines. Well, okay, one time I was talking to the printer to creep people out, talking to it like somebody would talk to a dog "you're a good printer, yes you are."
