 Road trip wisdom
Things I learned on my road trip to Morgan City -1020 miles is a long way -mississippi kfc is awsome -dont let ur wife give directions -driving a 9ft wide boat trailer across "hp long bridge?" in new orleans is a b!tch -Jason is a great guy -a 2072 is a damn big boat -90% of fancy cars are drivin by black people -my wipers need a speed above hi called tropical -if minnisota is the land of 1000 lakes louisiana is the land of 1000 bridges -i envy all the swamp land in LA -pulling a boat thru jackson is a b!tch -pulling a boat thru menphis is a b!tch -pulling a boat thru st louis is really a b!tch -most peaple in cars would rather die in a crash than let you merge -next time I see someone get out of a BMW im going to kick them in the nuts -if i leave morgan city at 4 am i can be home by midnight -you can get pulled over for gas n dash even if u used ur card at the pump.
Heres a pic of what i picked up thanks Jason.

 Re: Road trip wisdom
I got to see your boat first hand last week. It's a good looking boat for sure. And it is a wide boat no doubt but it looked like its gonna handle well. Congrats on the new boat.

 Re: Road trip wisdom
Classic road trip observations! You are right, I think people would rather die in a crash than demonstrate ANY sort of courtesy to other drivers, especially if you are towing.
