    :biggrin_2559: Are they ruffling your feathers??

    Don't forget the Delaware Memorial bridge.:biggrin_2559:

    I pulled out the map because someone mentioned I-895???

    Then I seen US13/DE1 is now a toll road. When did that happen? I traveled them roads a million times as a kid. You ever get a chance, run DE1 down the coast. Great scenery.

    It took me until 2008 to go through all 48. I was in 46 a long time ago except the Dakota's. My current company runs there all the time now.
    Trust me, you ain't missing anything.

    I'm not a trucker, but I've been in 45 states. Never been to Maine, Vermont, Rhode Island, Alaska, and Hawaii. I've also crossed the border provinces of Canada.

    And evidently I've done some living. I've driven 95 into MA. But again, only in a car. Do I get half-credit? :biggrin_255:

    They built that toll road few years back--basically kinda runs parallel to 13 part of the way down--like everywhere else the eastern shore getting way too crowded--and needed a bypass of some sort for years--and of course being the NE if you don't toll it you are dumb! LOL

    Oh, I thought this was about how many states in one shift. Overall, I've been in all but NH, VT, ME, RI and HI. I've also run BC, AB, SK, MT, ON. Never quite made it up into The Yukon or NWT, but I always wanted to.

    It is about states in one shift, but we've highjacked it to what it is now.


    I've been to 46 of the 48. I'd been at 44 for a long time. I got MT and ND in just the last 6 months.

    Now I need ME and VT.

    I've been to VT, but not in a big truck.

    I guess this is one of the things I can look back on having driven OTR for 1.5 years and say I'm glad I did it..

    Been to all the contiguous 48 except Or and WA - and have been to Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and New Brunswick, Canada. Used to frequent Quebec & Ontario actually.

    Working here I've only been to Oh, In, Mi, Pa, NY, NJ, Ct, Va, Md, DC, De, WV, and by a fluke circumstance, Kentucky. I've worked in two different regions also so that's probably a lot more ground than most working here have covered.
