Yup, I don't think I have ever been the one to hold up traffic in the hills. There is always a semi, or some clod in a huge bus of an RV towing a Jeep that slows everyone down. Or an old VW van lol. One of my parents neighbors was over when I was visiting with the Firefly, and he said that a car that small was dangerous to drive up there, because there are a lot more deer, moose, and other wildlife on the roads and if you hit one you'd get killed. Uhhh, pretty sure if you smack a 2000 pound moose at highway speeds, you are in trouble regardless of what you are driving. But you can't really reason with people like that in regards to them not needing the kind of vehicle they think they need. He had a crew cab, cummins powered 3500 Dodge pick up.
