really?? I’m sure you know what I’m talking about… ever see those thug looking guys drive? leaned WAY back with their left arm completely straight, hand on top of the steering wheel, windows down so everyone can see them, and usually some straight rimmed oversized hat?

OR…have you ever driven through Troy? :lol

1. gangsta lean

A common driving position in which the driver holds the wheel with his left hand while leaning to his right toward the passenger seat, usually bobbing his head or bumpin’ with the beat. It’s a pretty badass way to drive. This move works best in a Chevy Caprice or any pimp-style car with a 3-person front seat.

I was pretty damn close ;D

ohhh yea. ive seen that. its usually a super short guy trying to look kool, but his seat is moved point blank to the wheel, but the back is almost flat. i call em fools, not “gangsta lean” but i get it now. my seat is far back because its comfortable to sit that way, for me at least. i usually hold the wheel at the bottom if im cruising down the highway. its not comfortable to have ur arm sitting on top of it for a long time. whats the deal with the hats and leaving the price tags, other random tags and the round gold sticker on it? what does that do?
