Ram: *** Off topic ***

Phoenix sits in a valley, surrounded by mountains. The dust from the dirt roads and farming activities combines with the exhaust fumes from cars, trucks, and buses. Unless there's a nice, stiff breeze, it becomes an ugly layer of smog. Nothing like Los Angeles, but for an area that's supposed to be out in the wide open spaces, pretty bad.

My Harley doesn't contribute to the Valley's problem. First of all, it gets over 40 miles to the gallon which is over twice as much as the current "yuppie-mobiles" (Sport Utility Vehicles like PathFinder, 4Runner, Explorer, etc.). Besides, we're 125 miles North of Phoenix and at an elevation of 3,500 feet in the clear fresh mountain air of Sedona.

Hmmmm ... to test out my theory ... think I'll go for a ride right now.

Regards,

TED

Dear Ram: OFF TOPIC:

A year ago September I toured many of the National Parks in Arizona. I was shocked at the incredible number of dirt roads. When I see a State Rd on a map I expect it to be paved. Most are NOT in Arizona based upon my experience. However, since I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee I was in 7th Heaven. JDN
