[QUOTE="soberups, post: 516421, member: 14668"] It would be amusing to get to "trade places" with a NYC driver for a few days. I would probably have a nervous breakdown on my first day in NYC just trying to find somewhere to park and dealing with all the people and crowding. That whole grid system in Manhattan where you have numbered streets going both ways would confuse the hell out of me. I'm a country boy, just going to a medium-sized city like Portland OR gets my blood pressure up. On the flip side, it would be amusing to watch a NYC driver try to get my P-700 up a muddy gravel driveway in the dark and to see his reaction when the deer jump out in front of me or when I have to wait for a herd of goats to cross the road. Or to see him try to find a particular address when all you have to go by is 3 rusty mailboxes next to 2 unmarked driveways going up a dark mountain. Or to pull into someones driveway where men with rifles are standing there butchering a deer that they just shot. Communication would be interesting also. People from New York (excuse me, New [I]Yoik) [/I]do speak English...sort of....but it is a different dialect and you almost need subtitles to understand them. I like the idea. I would love to take my man STUG for a tour of God's country where there are hills and you can breathe the air and we dont have 90 degrees with 95% humidity. Come on up, STUG! [/QUOTE]
