How about we stick to old trucks and leave the politics to the politicians?Michael YarnallLeaving politics to the politicians is what got us into the mess we're in today. The time has come to say no more business a usual. Some of them got the message in 2010. Maybe the rest will next year. I have my congressman and senators numbers on speed dial.

Right where 81 and 84 meet. Its where 81 north had the bridge column at the end of the ramp. I'll look for the KW dealership next time I'm through there. As many times that I've driven that road I'm suprised I never noticed it.
