Cruisin' on my Bluebird
As a german (and U.S.) citizen I embrace the term and use it in a loving manner as it refers to Volkswagen and how people used to refer to the little car that couldn't compete with the big 3 here in the U.S....er...oh yeah...they did...that's right.
I think it's funny that it was ever determined a derogatory term as Sauerkraut is delicious.
It's also a handle I use with pretty much all forums I'm on except for thewheelmen who did think it was a little too far.
If anyone has a problem with it I'll change it. I think I first used it 10 or 12 years ago on thesamba.com and it kind of stayed with me. I was thinking it was time for a change recently. Anyone know how to change handles on thecabe? I don't really want to lose my old postings.

It doesn't bother me a bit, but I find it interesting that in a thread about racial sensitivity that one of the posts user handle is Krautwaggen. A derogatory term for a German National is a Kraut.
I wonder, if I used the handle, Niggercycle, how much flak I would get?
