[TenTec] OT

Now that is a very valid point I had not thought about, Steven.
Your rigs in the states are much larger than ours over here.

Over here, larger trucks, even much smaller than yours was, are simply not
allowed inside of many towns.  If you saw the narrow streets, you would know
why.

Here large trucks often have to transfer their payload to smaller trucks
(7.5 ton in smaller (older) towns, 3.5 ton) in order to deliver inside of
the towns and villages.

Keep in mind that our towns are sometimes a couple thousand years old.
The village I live in celebrated 1200 years old, 2 years ago, and man did we
have a party!

Maybe roundabouts are not bad, but traffic circles are real pain in the
butt.
You should try them in a big truck.
