    If the speed limit is 70 mph, anything under 80 mph and you are usually ok in TN.
    Depending on where and who, you can usually get by with 80mph in a 65.

    A lot of it has to do with the situation.
    If you drive erratic, you won’t get by with as much.
    I’d have to say, in most cases, if you get a ticket in TN, you probably deserved it.

    For the record, I usually set my cruise to 5-7 over on the interstate.
    5 over if it’s 70. And 7ish over if it’s 65.
    The closer you get to 80, the more you are pushing it.

    But…..that’s only on long trips. I bet I don’t use my cruise more than 2x a year.
    Most of the time, I’m at, or under, the speed limit.

    My “free time” is in the truck. I don’t get in a hurry…..

    Haha. Luckily not. I like to think NJ prepares you for driving anywhere. Well, excluding knowing how to pump gas :anonymous:

    If you make it this way, let me know what you think of Nashville traffic.
    I don’t know of any where that prepares you for that place.
    The layout was horrible from the start, then masses that have moved in has made it worse.
    It’s literally 80mph, and STOP……

    It’s pure chaos.

    I have driven in the Nashville area. The roads were definitely a bit confusing. I think I hit some traffic down in the Franklin area on the interstate.

    I view Nashville/Memphis as generic ‘Midwest’ traffic. You will hit some congestion. Poor design. Traffic during rush hour in the city parts. But once you get out of the built up areas, you got mostly Waffle House’s, gas stations, hotels and fast food.

    My great grandmother had a parrot.
    It defiantly had a unique vocabulary.

    “Awww shit, look what you done.” :rofl:

    Those things are messy.
    It was constantly making a mess around the cage with bird food and stuff.
    Which is how it learned the phrase above.

    It’s name was Cracker.
    Believe it or not, she picked a Parrot over a new car.
    Her children offered to buy her a new car when she turned 80.
    She told them she’d rather have a Parrot. :confused:

    I have a tendency to not know how I look on camera; I love parrots! I once posed with a live Boa Constrictor at a car show in 2016 as well, and wait until you see the baby alligator (which I petted) that the parrot owner's son had! I have no animal fears whatsoever, as long as it isn't poisonous or otherwise dangerous. Well, alligators are dangerous, but I've never had contact with one that was big enough to kill me...

    I don’t know, I seen what a Canadian goose kick my friends ass once.
    The power they have in their wings is unbelievable.

    May I suggested you never smack a Canada goose with your fishing poles.
    Or do…. It’s your call :rofl:
