Of course you would. I was only pulling your chain man. I have a CDL and am in the million mile club. I do drive in Holland and Europe regularly. If I didn't have a Dutch navigator sitting beside me I would be so fucking lost dude. It's such a small country you wouldn't think that possible, but you must trust me when I tell you that many places are not marked. Streets change names 3 times within 3 blocks. No intersection has 4 corners. I call it Wacky World when I am in the car. You should rent a car and give it a go(WATCH OUT FOR BIKES). It will be like driving for the first time and on mars at that. It has taken me 2 years to even begin to be comfortable behind the wheel here. There are camera controls everywhere. They collect fines on the spot in many cases. It really is Wacky World by auto here. Every morning on the news it shows the traffic jams all across the country. Some are 30 kilometers long everyday. I shit you not. So do your homework before you ship your truck. Every few weeks here in Amsterdam a truck making a right turn crushes and kills someone on a bike.

Damn bro, most of those were city miles I'll bet. I'd go crazy(er).
Gotta get my highway miles, hammer down, set the cruise, & look cool on my stool. 10-4 8)
