    I pulled into fuel at an empty Love's a couple years ago. A dozen isles all empty. Fueled up, left it at the pump to go get my receipt and hit the bathroom, maybe 5 minutes. Came back out and a guy was in back of my truck and honked at me for leaving my truck there.

    I am not going to disturb anyone but that stretch of 85 in the pine forests around St Petersburg towards Richmond means I feel the ghosts of those who held the line until they were forced out in battle for siege warfare. I don't know Some of my direct ancestors lived on that land until they were burned out by McDonald's Union Troops during that operation. They went back to Somerset.

    I'll admit it, I did it once too. By accident. Ran in for a quick pit stop, ended up not being so quick. ####ing Taco Bell

    All the decades of engineering experience building big rigs and so on condensed into International thinking they can do something no one else was doing. You could not catalytic convert that much power, gases, and flow that fast without carrying a huge 15 foot high 2 foot thick brick on your back.

    It is good that they were totally discredited, destroyed some of their good will and good name building truly craptastic trucks. Big brand of Maxxforce just caused me to go eeech here we go maxcrapith. And so they vanished from our roads quietly and quickly.
