    Ever since I've been on the road, I keep noticing that just about every Canadian truck I see is a chromed out Pete, KW, or Western Star and I'm curious as to why. Do Canadians just have really good taste, or is there some other reason that they ALWAYS seem to drive bada** rigs?

    The Volvo from Q'bec that parked in the middle of the aisles and took a leak in our parking lot would disprove that statement.

    That's funny because 99% of the ones I see are brand new automatic Aero trucks going 63.5 mph

    This is the first thing that comes to mind when I think Canadian . Ugly slow brand new truck, overly large deer guard, and weird themed colored graphics

    Oh and sleeping with their high beams on just like the foreigners out of Chicago
