I occasionally see these and similarly size trucks in AutoRV. In regards to “public road use prohibited” however:

When I lived in Boston, I lived *across the street* from a subway station. On a line that intersected all others within minutes, so getting anywhere was damn quick and simple, for a $79/mo all-you-can-eat pass. Read more

Reading through the comments is like the most ironic mess of “Triggered” and I’m just sitting here like
