Havin the ole diesel was definitely an advantage in this crud. Size, power, ability to run a long time without overheating, and while lots of stations had no gas, they did have diesel. Had to come back and help with Emergency Management so rode out the storm here after evac'ing my family.
I drove from Oklahoma City to Brenham, Texas in same time my kids drove from Houston to Brenham (about 100 miles). Friends drove from 24 to 32 hours to get from Houston to Dallas, typically a 4 hour drive. People left trash everywhere and drove like idiots. I just couldn't smoke'em all (hehehehe)

I just did that the night before last. I took off from a stoplight, and the guy to my right was in a merge lane. Well I was actually going to let him go in front of me when he flicks out a cigarette which bounces up off my grille, bounces off the corner of my windshield, and very nearly gets sucked into my open window. There was no way I was gonna let that jerk pass me now. He got on the gas as soon as he heard my truck downshift, but it was already too late. We went a good block and a half with his window even with my tailpipe. When he finally had to merge behind me I could see smoke coming out of his passenger window. 
I'm not normally rude like that but use an
ashtray!

Damm skippy! I would have very tempted to go into to Road rage for that! The one thing I had to teach the wife is If your going act stupid on the road your better be prepared to be crazier then the other guy getting out of their car. If you can't back it up, shut up is my motto.
