    Good point on Atlanta and lighting, it is very dark in most places.

    Went through there a couple days ago. Oh, I couldn't see the lanes. Oh, the lanes are half the size of truck. I should be in government.

    Atlanta took in 100,000 people from Hurricane Katrina, thats why its almost impossible to get through there.

    I thought giving HM to Miami, just cause there is no place to stay, except some tiny stores / Cuban grilles in the middle of the nurseries, and most of the places I'd ever been to down there are not designed for 53' trailers, very tight.

    Drive in or thru? There is a difference.

    Driving thru as in not getting off the highway going into:
    San Francisco , Montreal , Washington DC, Miami, LA.

    If I had to put my top 5 in order.
    Its a different one if going downtown.

    Gotta give my home city Louisville an honorable mention for its no left hand breakdown lane and current contruction & recent traffic disasters from bridges.

    I hear you on Louisville but I always liked that city. It's unique and the massively oversized airport cracks me up!
