I've had this argument so many times in this very thread that I give up. Yeah, get rid of the trucks. Everyone don't forget to bring a sack lunch and fill up the tank before you come up!

Please give up. You have been pointed out to be off base many times before.
You got it bud. You win.Quote:

Fuck you Danno! Franger trash! ;)Quote:

Sounds so ummmmm what's the word? SIMPLE!
Aren't there some legislative rules that preclude turning it into a toll road? I seem to vaguely recall some issue with making this happen.Quote:

fuck if I know, but I bet the answer is in this thread somewhere, as this is the 23rd time we have had this discussion here.Quote:

Still waiting for a Vail Pass closure today...........
First one...Safety closure at FriscoQuote:

What’s TABOR?

I’ve got to head to Denver Sat night for an early flight on Sunday. I don’t drive east past empire anymore and never on weekends. If I leave Vail at 3 will it be a mess? Should I wait til 6? 8?
Same here. I was surprised on how slick it was. Driving south on 9 this morning watched a car lose it into the snow bank. With more snow tonight and MLK weekend I’m sure the carnage will be plentiful.Quote:
