    Could you imagine taking a new driver up to one of these now?
    They’d quit just from walking up and seeing it wasn’t a brand new Cascadia.

    When my BP starts to elevate I remind myself.

    I think you'd have an easier time understanding people if you remembered that 80% of them are f morons. :sign3:

    I am currently in NEPA idling my non complaint motor. The fumes will eventually travel north to Canada and cause severe snow melt while giving almost everyone in it’s path cancer….. UNLESS ……the giant fans block it and send back towards my truck( giving everyone a second dose of cancer) in which case it will re-enter my exhaust stack and go back into my engine. I think this is an open loop EGR system. Therefore, I do care about the environment. I shall now celebrate earth day at the local Whole Foods wearing nothing but Birkenstocks and clothing I fashioned out of leaves and an old burlap sack.

    And you all thought I wasn’t woke. AE3F41D5-6690-44DD-A6B6-A6B0B125DCAB.gif

    I'd take that over a Cascadia ANY day!

    When I was younger, we would take our dirt bikes to fields we knew had Jack rabbits. We would then chase the rabbits around the fields. Interesting thing we learned. The rabbits will try to run in a circular patten at first starting away from the den hole opening, the turn and spiral in towards the hole. The secret to really running them was to cut off that path. We got pretty good at it. That was the first time really hearing a rabbit scream. They can be really loud.

    Deer will do the same thing... But it's a MUCH larger circle.

    The truck has stopped!!!!!! At an indigenous Peelot.

    It's actually one of the better Peelot's.

    The OM has had her chicken and is pleased. Waiting on shower.

    She hurt me. Can't go into details, but it was painful. No more gingers!

    We get that it's REALLY hot here. And humid.

    BUT

    The children don't get it. The idling has simply got to stop. No amount of wind turbines can compensate for all the idling.

    The OM feels like the best way to make certain no idling laws are enforced, keys are going to have to start to be collected when at the truck stop.
