    I can't see why, Texas is probably the friendliest state to trucks in terms of parking and easy routing.

    Agree the heat here sucks but you eventually give in to it but here in Houston I can't stand the 4 wheelers crazier than bat #### or 290 610 :biggrin_25513:

    I work right there between Ft Worth and Dallas

    All I can think of is all the construction traffic .

    Houston is endless traffic also .

    Major freeways are blocked due to road rebuilding and traffic is backed up for ever
