    Lighten up, EZ - his comment was self-deprecating humor. :)

    Truck had a Vernier cable, from the factory. I have a throttle stick, but I just drive on the foot. Pretty good at locking my ankle in place and holding a steady speed. Besides, when I find myself driving slow, I know I'm getting tired and it's close to bed time.
