Dub
OK, I guess I am too old to know what it means and figure some of the younger guys on here knows. What does "DUB" come from and what does it mean?
Thanks...........

Re: Dub
Any time you're wondering about slang terms and what they mean, www.urbandictionary.com is the end-all be-all resource on the web to learn about them.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=dub That's a great explanation. There is also a company named "DUB" which sells wheels and other stuff. Also see "dubs": http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=dubs

Re: Dub
Yeah, it is. "Peace, see ya later" is probably what he was trying to express. People do that to me when I'm driving the truck, I think it's like the "thumbs up" that fellow Impala drivers used to give me back in the day when I drove by them in my Impala.

Re: Dub
Thanks for the nice comments guys. I may bag it eventually, but money will determine when.

Re: Dub
Any time I ever heard or used dub, it ment to do something but not very productive, say if you're "flub dubbin' around" means your not doing much, but doing something.
