So that's the kind of treatment you guys hand out? Tough crowd.

Sure we can get on him for bringing it on himself, but the reaction from other drivers still sucks.
One reaps what they sow.


Once we put behind us the cause of the traffic impediment, I believe we are all onboard with bashing the DB's who can't or won't drive with a lick of common sense or decency.

Marty, be glad that your triangle is still in one piece....

My SD will actually let me know about 10 miles before it runs out by losing acceleration and the inability to wind up the RPMs
The reserve light does not function, and the gauge does not read correctly since the tank of RUG that my wife put in the vehicle, so I never mess around with pushing the mileage, and I always carry a gallon of diesel and a quart of trans fluid in the trunk.
