Bill, you dont think that cops target cars that look fast or sound fast....or people that "look like" trouble? I'd say you were pure lucky that you were only pulled over once for resembling a description. When I was young, I was pulled over in my black '69 camaro all the time...for trivial things. Fast forward 20 years later and I have never been pulled over in my Discovery...never. If I drive 71mph in my Discovery I can drive the rest of my life and never be bothered, but if I do the same in the Cobra I think I can bank on losing my license in about 8000 miles. (you do drive 71 mph, dont you?)

Let me just say, I dont think the Gov't wants to control my wallet through my car. But, cops are human. There are cops that hate white people, there are cops that hate black people, there are cops that are nazis, there are cops that hate SUVs and there are cops that hate flashy cars and motorcycles, that will never change. I feel the gov't controls my wallet through taxes and politics not though local the local police force.
