I seldom ever took the PA Pike, but from what I remember, the new coating should have been an improvement. They should have let it dry.... A new top coat for free. What more could they ask for?:thumbsup:

I heard this morning that they fined the driver of the tanker for not properly "securing" his load. Perhaps they need to send him a check for fixing their roads. :lol:

Looked like it was Stewart Mitchell out of Maryland. Of the trucks I've seen of theirs around here they look like they have all dropped some goo going down the road. That stuff is all over the trailers.
