3 Kaliforinian

Actually, I wish it was a joke.

East bound Saturday on I40 thru Arkansas. I pass a uhaul truck with a uhaul trailer loaded with a car tagged in Kalifornia that was running sideways enough that I could see the drivers mirror most of the time, In front of that was a Ford Expedition with a Uhaul enclosed trailer that was swaying bad enough at 65 it made me nervous. Just in front of them was what really set me off. A white 2500 Dodge with a diesel with three bikes on a bumper rack and maybe a 1/2 a bed worth of stuff. Every vehicle had Kalifornia tags so I assume they were together.

Who ever this was needs to own up to it and explain why the most capable vehicle was running empty and the in the ford was trying to kill someone.

You got that right. I was so releaved when we drove out of the god forsaken state for good, I had a grin from ear to ear

I seen a little ol' gas F250 the other day pulling what looked like a double trailer from a semi. First in the line up was what seemed to be a 22' + travel trailer, behind that a small 16' boat was hitched up then a small trailer full of mountain bikes. That must of been illegal but I just laughed when I seen that load for that truck, it was squatin worse then a bear in the woods. The overlead springs must of been smooshed.

California may have lost some of its shine over the years, but its still the only State with three Local Chapters.

Fronty and Timmay,

Since you guys can't spell California maybe I can help you out a little.

And since you saw three people, and to you that represents ALL the people in California, did it occur to you that they are now in Arkansas?

It makes me want to generalize about people that make stupid comments.

I spell Cali like that because of the insane socialism that state seems to promote.

I dont recall generalizing all californians as being dangerous drivers. I just commented they were Californians.

Funny thing about California.... all of the freaks that I meet are from someplace else. I guess that all of the other states send us their future darwin awards recipients.
