"My daughter notices Canada all the time! She wants to move there (Vancouver). Of course, she is fifteen, but it has been this way for a couple of years now."

Bill R. --- Really, Vancouver? She'll want to move back after a year, as Vancouver gets a lot of rain along with Asians that don't know what to do with their money other than to plow it into real estate. (because it never goes down). So 500 sq ft condos change hands over $500K minimum. The rental situation there is getting worse by the week. $700K will get you a house that in any other city would be considered, an, ahem, "crack house". USA is the place to be.

Woe, woe woe! Dude!

This is a respectable website. Let's keep the conversation in the upper story of the house, all right?

I'll just repeat it. Driving in the Northeast is a total drag because of the way was designed and settled hundreds of years ago. That's why most truckers don't like it.

Bottom Line: Driving in the Northeast sucks. That's why most truckers don't like it.

I did get that from the previous posts. ;)

I live here, so whether I like it or not, I'll have to LEARN to like it! Otherwise I'll be one miserable girl. I learned that life makes it a hobby of making things difficult for me. It's always been that way, so I have to take this as another challenge she's throwing my way. I'll show her....

Rob S. ......Wowa.

My uncle and my cousins have been living there all their lives, and made a good life for themselves. My cousin now lives on his nice yacht, and well....to each their own. One day, I really want to go visit them over there! I hear it's beautiiiful. :)

For the record, I love driving in the northeast. I'm in New York City every week or on long Island and don't mind it a bit. I'm often in Connecticut, Mass, Rhode Island and Jersey and don't mind those either. Then again, our loads pay really well to go there.

Do you mind me asking who you work for? :)

When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.
