Pianoman, for your information, my doctor is also trying to find out what crawled up my backside.

If whatever it is gets up all the way to my brain looking for something to feed on, it will starve to death.

One of my core goals day in day out is to be a good steward of the road. As a rule I don't think trucks should be passing other trucks unless they can go 3 mph faster than the truck they are passing, out in the boonies you can justify passing at 2 mph, or 1 mph if their is zero traffic. It creates too many adverse events in traffic trying to pass with such a small speed margin between the vehicles. Tying up the left lane on 18 wheels going 1 mph faster to pass another truck in the center or right lane will back up traffic significantly. It's a top tier d*ck move which impedes traffic and makes 4 wheelers cut us all off in the right and center lanes who understand the concept of proper lane use. Interestingly enough, most of the guys doing this don't look like top producing professionals trying to maximize miles. It's just lazy, stupid, and inconsiderate behavior IMO.
