    So according to a certain Sassy-One, and (do you remember Bonnie), and of course @bullhaulerswife they all confirmed that 8 inches was an imaginary delusion of men.... so if they are correct.....would 12" or more be a fantasy?:eek::D:rolleyes:

    Those of us who, (or is it whom,) have been stuck on Monument for many hours, understand just how deceiving it can be. And this was waaaay back in the '70's when the traffic was "relatively" light. I bet it's even more fun now!
    I lucked out on Monument though, when I was driving for Knight out of Denver. Never happened to have any problems there.
