    Same in Austin, TX. But rotated to allow equal opportunity at the more lucrative corners. Strong union format.. Seniority, time on corner, etc.

    Have used Garmin products for some time. They have a few things that are not well documented.

    You can easily overload the screen by displaying all the variations of notifications.

    Garmin units all have lifetime map updates.
    Always a good idea to update a new unit. You can also do a backup of your unit. Garmin has an app that you will use for these things.

    I have found that I don’t care for all the overlays, so I have that all turned off. I don’t care that a Wally-World is at the next exit.

    Very strong build. Smashed my 760 against the brick wall not even single crack. Interesting why did I smash it?
    Shutting down randomly, updates, crazy routing, map data from Civil War era. Enough?
    Search in internet for hidden functions, like hold two buttons for 10 sec to reset, you will need it on the road sometime if gps quit working.

    On the subject of Titanic. There was going to be a modern #2. Diesel electric power would have mad her much lighter as there wouldnt be the need for the massive boilers. Yet the man ran out of money.
    Titanic II - Wikipedia

    On the subject of Waffle Houses. Alas they wont come to Maine. Must be a southern thing. We are not worthy here in Maine or even New York and north

    Costs are too high for them if they start going to the areas they do not serve now.

    If you don’t eat, do you really need to brush your teeth?

    Asking for a friend.

    I was thinking earlier, (Oh No,) about bands that just...disappeared.
    Used to hear then over & over like played the same song on the radio 3-6 times per day, change the station and there’s that same song on 2-3 different stations at the same time.
    What about the ones they just leave out like the stone ponies, or a ton of others you don’t head?
    Just the same song everyday, everyday, everyday...




    ok.. maybe a little much.. I know I’m not the only one who remembers these...
