On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

Hell no!!  And putting feet on the dash is a huge HELL NO!!

A guy I knew on a sportbike used to grab people's feet hanging out the windows.  Used to scare the crap out of them!!

In an accident this would be terrible!!  Go look at that post of someone's foot on the dash during airbag deployment....Let me find it.

I used to tell my wife how funny it would look if the airbag went off and her legs ended up wrapped around her head. :o
That didn't quite do the trick until I saw the above website awhile ago.  That convinced her.

 :rofl: let me know how that goes after you've had 25+ years together. :stick:  :P  At least she doesn't put her feet on the glass.  I'm not getting more flexible as I get older, and I hate cleaning the windshield on the inside as it is.

I've been with IQ for 19 years.

There is no fighting when either of us corrects the other for what is unwanted/undesireable behavior.

I'm not sure why poor behavior is accepted whether it's you wife, child...or the neighbors dog.  Unwanted behavior should be fixed...and it shouldn't cause a fight, either. 

Is it that big of a deal to say "Please don't do that" ??


Couldn't have said it better myself....

i get to enjoy a nice pair of extended smooth soft legs next to me.

I guess that means I can also put my feet up on your dash  :-*

Showing off your quads to the folks in the other traffic lanes?  :)

Poll closed.  Oh-so-scientific results gathered from oh-so-carefully posed and non-subjective/skewed questions and the results are in......

The majority of voters on this forum are absolutely opposed to front seat passengers propping the legs up on the dashboard or out the window.  Of course, being enthusiasts, we are hardly representative of the population at large, who clearly don't care (or think)two squats given how commonplace this stupid behaviour is.
