    I don't get to run at night, so I am always fighting getting through rush hour traffic. Yesterday i had to go tbrough Chattanooga at 5 pm. Fortunately, I was going east. Only took 35 or so. The westbound side was backed up for miles in two different areas. 30 minutes can make a huge difference in big cities. I use the can at shippers, etc. Already parked.
