    Are you saying raise your sights and Maximize revenue over time (day/week/month) rather than sweating pennies per mile?

    Thats pretty creative.

    I used to drive those things on several lakes for families a little bit of a clumsy craft but nonetheless its a very clever way to work around the law.

    That's in the region of New Holland. US 322 if I remember right. Place probably went by Earl or something like it.

    My Amish Haunts are few in number with a big rig. Parking is the number one issue followed by some walking to do to get to some spot to get good food.

    That part of the Amish Country was not too frequent for me. It's usually US 15, US 30 or 78 etc. If I had th time to sneak off into Lancaster I'll go that way. However the area centering on Cromwell with it's Iron Ore etc and in that general triangle I consider ancestral grounds for part of my family. I just have to slog through the geneology which is a challenge. Just need to find which grandpa failed the Rumspringa and took off to Baltimore.

    Had better things to do than driving the truck combined with "Give a wahoowe" running low.
