To California98Civic and others!

It sounds like you have really GREAT GAME going on, but I was curious because I believe you mentioned that these substantial uphills are all on a freeway.

Wouldn't it be prudent on a long uphill stretch to tuck in behind a heavily loaded truck, and just putter up the hill at a relaxed constant speed?

Are the police that mean about STEEP HILLS? With the vintage of your car, wouldn't "It's a little tired, I'm trying to make it last in this economy" work IF you were stopped?


I never drive any faster than I absolutely have to!!!
