100% I drive a massive "UPS/FEDEx/Bread Truck" like ford E350 Boxtruck for work. I drive it much slower than I drive our mirage but experience far less people (possibly none) doing one of those "Revenge overtakes" where they overtake and cut in front of you (inches or a foot or two). I don't think it is directed toward the Mirage but towards any small car, I'm assuming people have more self preservation instincts when dealing with larger vehicles than with smaller vehicles that wont really injure them.

It could also be a financial or Odd man out thing, people are blown away when they find out I drive a Mirage and Fiat 500 (at the office we all have six figure salaries). So just like homeless people get treated worse than someone who has a lucrative career a mirage owner might get treated as someone who has made so many bad/dumb decisions that they can "only afford a clown car".

just my 2 cents.
