Default Why

Ran several hundred miles on the motor coach recently. This thing will run all day and all night @78 mph. 85 if the speed limit is over 65. Up hill down hill around corners just drives like a car.

My questions why in the hell does everyone need to pass it? Three cylinder Metro's with 5 people will try and pass, why? I should be paid to drive this thing. Should receive a commission for ever ticket issued to the *** clowns who will pass on the left or right. Twice on the berm.

Hello when you pass something exceeding the speed limit expect a ticket. Chn 9 is sure fun to use to identify to a bear where they can find and unsafe driver.

I wasn't DIGGING as many of you have but I did beat everything that didn't pass me. I also beat everything that revvvvvvvved on me. There are few vehicles on the road with the torque of this pusher.

Well, since you said you loved LT1's and that you kind of look up to me as a role model, I figured I would take this boring thread and show you something youre going to love even more!

Is that a TT C5?

They must be running faster than you if they're catching you. This would indicate that you might be an obstruction to the flow of traffic...even though you think you are'nt. As for feeling the need to pass you, most people don't like driving with their view obstructed.

Maybe you're the problem and you're compensating for your feelings of inadequacy by using the power of government to exact a form of revenge against these perceived transgressors when you yourself are breaking the law (but it is somehow o.k.). You then seek others approval for your actions in an anonymous forum.

We've established that you are: in denial and lack empathy (and courtesy) for other motorists, a coward at heart that can't face people to resolve problems when you view them as attacking you, ashamed of your actions but feel that it is the only thing that gives you power in your helpless little world/motor coach.
