Agree, but I still want the gassers to keep to the right on the hills so I don't have to slow down for them.
So gassers towing TT's and 5th wheels are so popular that you encounter them all summer? In all our travel over the decades, we don't see that many that we're sharing the hills with them, much less that many gassers. We do however encounter many diesel powered OTR tractor trailers doing exactly as you describe. Can be annoying. Story time does stoke the imagination though...
Not that many but when you are held up for miles it seems there's too many. On the interstate it's no issue but on miles of well traveled 2 lanes with 6/7% pulls, some as long as 9/10 miles constant it gets frustrating.
