Missed that. PSD or gasser, no friggin way they're getting even close to 29. I'd MAYBE believe 23 at BEST with all highway with a stiff wind pushing you for a LONG way without stopping.

Morning guys and happy Monday! 19 and sunny here this morning when I was dragged out of bed by the large amount of money I'm paying to go to a stupid 8 am class. I'm with Chris, I hate Mondays.
