Not impressed at all! Even tho i live out in the country,they seem to play it louder and more of them,because most cities and small towns are writting fines for loud stereo's! What i'm thinking of doing is,everytime i hear one coming,i'll get out my AK47 and let them hear that instead,in faCT,I HOPE THEY HEAR IT IN THEIR HEAD FOR ALL ETERNITY,WHILE THEY'RE IN THEIR GRAVE! i HATE THUMPING!

Not impressed. These idiot, losers are attention seekers. Not to mention the fact that it's obnoxious and inconsiderate to play a stereo loud enough for everyone around to hear. In Chicago, it's illegal to play a stereo loud enough to be heard from 75 feet away.
The problem is that the police rarely inforce the law, which calls for impoundment of the vehicle.

No. I find it highly annoying. When your car stereo
a; makes my teeth vibrate, b; make the windows in my home vibrate, and/or c; drowns out my little car radio or CD player so that I can't even hear it and you're a block down the street, it's time to turn it down. You can listen to the dull thump-thump-thump all you want, but have some sense and common decency and keep it down so it doesn't bother other people.

The "thumping" is ridiculous - usually the music is distorted and covered by the sounds of the dash vibrating. Usually when I hear the thumping and look over to see where its coming from, I see a rusted out piece of junk and find myself thinking "why in the world do you want to draw attention to yourself in that bucket of bolts"?

I'm impressed with a good or custom speaker install..... but I definitely don't appreciate cars "thumping" around me. That's why I don't have a stereo like that....anymore. It seems like a high school thing to do.....

I am not impressed. I have very sensitive hearing and it gives me a headache to listen to "thumping" for more than 30 seconds. I feel it is noise pollution.

I HATE ITTT!!!! jeesh, it irritates the hell out of me to be sitting in my car, next to someone who has a "thumping" system. I get way more pissed then necessary i think. i had to sit in a car that "thumped" one day. Not only did I have a huge attitude, but i had a massive headache!!!!

No, I'm not. To me, it's nothing more than loud noise which is annoying and irritating, to say the least. I don't really understand why people do it. My only guess is to show that they somehow came up with enough money to buy expensive speakers. Woo hoo...good for you buddy. Personally, I can think of MANY more things to spend my money on. :)

NO! I don't understand why do these people think that everyone within a half-mile radius wants to hear their music? They will be sorry in a few years when they're deaf!
