I can say much about goose steping liberals, but I wouldn't, Mike.
As I use my GREEN daily, I've made it a habit to be both careful and
courteous.
Besides, I don't need to be anywhere yesterday, not at 45 mph MAX.

Have seen many a lexuses and suburbans tailgate and cutoff others.
In the 18 years I have been using my M715, only been stopped twice. Once
to be asked what a lone army truck was doing on a highway at 3 in the
morning and the second
asked to exit a 4 lane limited access highway and use the parallel 2 lane
road, no passing lanes.

I could only make 25 mph going up hill. I was carrying one hell of a load.
Trooper was afraid that someone would plow into the rear of me.
(Tailgateing again or following to closely and thats my fault, go figure.)
Heck, loaded greyhound buses were not doing better then 30. Come to think
of it, neither were anyother
rigs of size less they were running light.

I was polite, firm and respectful. My reward, no ticket. Even saw a smile
on his face as I left.

Merry Christmas All !!!
