<< I like poking along on two lane roads, smelling the crops and stopping at will. I feel sorry for the drones ripping down the highway at 85mph in their suv's, tinted windows and A/C keeping the real world at a distance.>

This line really has me PIMPLMAO

Maybe the "drone's" are laughing at the rolling box, unable to keep up with traffic at any normal speed especially with the AC on ( if it works, which in a show of hands usually doesn't )

Some folks have smelled the roses already, done the crop check, stopped for lunch, and a pee call, and need to get to where their going without fear of blowing the ride up at 85 mph.

What we have here is a case of acute jealousy.

They can.

You can't.

Wave as they blow by you next time.
