    I have a harder time getting around the manufactured homes,
    thats the only thing that bothers me about them. But
    there are always worse drivers in suvs and mini vans.

    None of these selections really bother me. But if I had to pick one, I would say old construction vehicles because many of them can not go as fast as the typical highway speed limit.

    Funny
    My grandma is gone now but when she first got her license it cost a .25 and she didnt have to test. Just sent in the money.
    She gave it up when the cost went up to I think 5 bucks.
    The funny part is she never ever drove a car.

    I would have to say all of em. Most of the bull haulers burn the hiways up though, so you're not around them that much. I did get my freshly washed truck covered with cow #### and #### following one though. Now days I mostly get tired of the people around here wanting to run 35 in a 45 or 35 in a 55. 2 lane road so no where to pass. Man that makes me so mad!

    I really enjoy pulling through the scales, sign says maintain 45 mph, always a truck doing 30. I'm not sure why this happens, but if you're scared, buy a dog.:biggrin_2552:
