    I remember in 2020 when they weren't even pulling people over for speeding. 80mph on MD63 was not uncommon :rofl:

    #1 driving pet peeve right there- tailgating when going over the speed limit. BTFO!

    A close #2 is pot smokers or the elderly going up to 10 miles below the speed limit.

    A close #3 motorcycles on or across the yellow.

    Back to original programming….

    There was this period of time where I kept getting behind this red full size Chevy that went the exact same route I did. Dude was smoking pot the entire way.


    Don't know why he couldn't used a weed vape like the rest of us! Erm, I mean, what? :rofl:

    Yeah, let’s squeeze that into 2.5 on my list. Inconsistent speed is really irritating and can be dangerous too. :annoyed:

    I dislike all the people who don’t need to be on the road but insist on entering said space during morning & evenings rush hours just to travel at “Their” pace.

    Might as well buy a Subaru at this point. It's always a Subaru driver being slow around here :annoyed:

    Pond princess with shots fired! Hit the deck.

    I was tailgated Friday morning by a guy who was so close in a car I couldn't see his windshield or roofline. Im going uphill,over a bridge with perfect spacing with everyone in front of me. Nowhere to go bub. I gently tapped my brakes to say hello. I proceed with the flow of traffic and get over quickly to let him go. He flys over in front of me, slams on the brakes, and then swerves back into the left lane and pins the gas. My lunch box went flying, it took everything in me not to chase that guy down and flatten him and his dodge journey. It's just not worth it, people have been shot aggressively approaching a vehicle in Florida, and it's been justified. It's the one drawback to working at the Space Center- the drawback being im firearm free...

    Is $325 too much or is that the going rate? I thought $200 would be a lot!

    Alright, I am not afraid to say it...
    I just spent 10 minutes reading the above comments. You want to know what ticks me off?
    People complaining about other drivers.
    People complaining about life.
    People complaining complaining about the weather.
    Basically, people complaining about anything as a group.

    I woke up today. Felt alright. Had to come into work at 5am. Nice drive at that time of morning.
    I had to listen to a lot of complaining. Oh well.

    My point, none of you can put yourselves in the shoes of those who you criticize. You never know.

    I am blessed and know that, even if I live 30 more years, today will be the best day.

    Just got done with 7 lawns, having a relaxing moment in front of the fan. :cool:

    I do my best to maintain order.
    Staying on topic though.... :notsure:

    Not much on them either. The only reason we all kinda like each other is we can put down or turn off the computer/phone and ignore.:lalala::lalala::lalala:

    Hey now! o_O

    :rofl:

    I don't go very fast -- 5 over the limit on the highway usually. That said I do make an effort to not impede the flow of traffic.

    When you have a bright orange truck speeding is probably unwise...

    The 97 Subaru is a nice car to drive, it always feels competent - this little Forester however is downright zippy.

    Moving away from a stop it really scoots. :rocket:

    It appears that the box is attached directly to your panel board, if you do the work yourself it would probably take about an hour and less than $100 in parts. I don't know how much the RV plug costs.

    For a pro to come out and do the work $325 is probably fair.
