    There's a reason it's known as "Philthadelphia" to everyone else outside the area.

    LOL... as another driver mentioned, one of the worst phrases out there has to be, "You feel me?" The answer is self-evident and a resounding "NO!" What kind of man asks another man if he can "feel" (a physical touch) him? This IS what the question is literally asking. I've been asked this twice by younger guys in conversation and although I know they mean it metaphorically, my response was the same in both situations. "NO, I don't feel you and have no desire to feel you in any manner."

    LMAO... If you don't conform to the "Big 10-4 Good Buddy catch you on the flip" crowd In guess you don't belong in a truck, because that makes all then difference in whether or not you can actually drive...

    The question is asking, literally, whether you can empathize with him -- not whether you share a dermatological bond.
