    Actually.... Its the NE in general... lol and california.... and major cities... and any other place where a lot of ppl are located... :D What can I say? I dont like crowds. My FM said the speeds I run are good, which is 58. Loaded or not, I run 58. Only exception is when I really need to get somewhere. Course lately I havent been in a big hurry.

    1900 duh!

    "Rush Hour" is a term, not a 60 minute measure of time... Especially in major metropolitan areas.

    ORD and mumbles, Da1 is right, just messing with ya. So not a people person huh ORD? i pretty much stayed to myself when i was driving too, tho sometimes i would like to strike up a conversation but decide not to do it as to not hold anybody up from there day to day lives. :biggrin_25519:

    Not really... Ive never been a people person. Comes from spending most of my life alone. Its what I know, so its what I do. Dont mind talkin to people, most of um anyway, I just tend to keep to myself.
