Most everyone who was out in the right lane still hammering on it were the big SUV's and the full size pickups, many of them are still running 80 and bitchin' about how much fuel costs!!!!! Idjuts....

Just a dang shame that some people will have to wait for the government to mandate the 55 mph crap again when all they would have to do is back off a bit and save some fuel voluntarily.... Sometimes I gotta wonder, maybe we are just getting what we deserve.....
Dave, I have said the same thing. I drive 60-65 and I am sure in the way.
And on truckers. I do have compassion for their economics but there are a lot of real jerks driving trucks, they tailgate and cut lanes like a high school girl in a Honda. And what's up with that setting on the floor look, I saw one today and all there was visible was his cap and sunglasses. Is that like some trucker coolness I missed out on?
