Could somebody explain how letting Millie drive anything was a good idea? Oh that’s right, Isolde’s a dragon, she’s supposed to cause chaos.I suppose I could just complain about the lack of gear shifting in this cartoon. Trucks have a lot of gears, you start out in second and have to shift at least 7th or 8th to cruise on city streets. You have to go to 10th for highway driving.
Millie is reliving CONVOY…..old movie about truckers defying the law and corrupt gov’ment officials.PigPen this here is the Rubber Duck!!!!We got us a convoy.Put that church bus next to the dynamite hauler…..he needs all the help he can get.Look out boys dey got bears in the air…..!!!!My best trucker story.Late one night out in West (by God) Texas IH 10 about 2AM.I was just cruising along in my little 5.0 Mustang. Two big rigs rolled up. I could hear them talking for miles…back and forth about all kinds of things. One of them remarks as they drive by….“I wonder how that Smoky would feel if I just put this big Peterbilt truck on top of his tiny Mustang?”I keyed up my CB……“How would you feel with six 357mag rounds coming up through your drivers seat into your a##?”Dead silence on the air waves as those two trucks disappeared over the road.Later in the night I heard….“You think we are far enough away?”I replied…..“Nope, your still in Texas keep going.”

Millie’s determined look in panel 3 is hard to beat.

Maybe the “picket” fence is supposed to symbolize protester signs?
