The lazy manTraffic is a lot like jury duty. The only people who have to suffer through it are the ones who don?t have enough sense to dodge it. Now, we all know a million and one ways to thumb our nose at civic responsibilities, but getting out of gridlock requiAs people move farther and farther away from the cities, suburbs and exurbs looking for affordable housing and safer streets, rural roads are becoming more clogged than a teenager?s pores. Thankfully, there?s no more fertile ground for plotting out a stop-and-go free commute than The Sticks. Anytime the thoroughfare gets swamped, just pull off the shoulder, drop into 4-wheel drive, and gun it. Don?t let front yards scare you off, either?gravel can be re-raked, clothes lines will be found eventually, and mailboxes are always on sale. The only downside to rough-riding through the mud is that your rig can get mighty grimy mighty quick, so be s For the urban off-roader, I have just 2 words for you: train tracks. Any set of railroad or trolley tracks is ideal for getting across town in a hurry. A few warnings, though: public transportation is notorious for making frequent stops, so be sure to leave plenty of room between yourself and that big steel sausage in front of you. Also, this technique can get a tad bumpy, so I don?t recommend eating a Slim Jim while you do it, unless you have no gag reflex.

You?ll be going where no pickup was intended to go, so you?ll be hitting plenty of uneven terrain. All that rocking while you?re rolling will ultimately lead to some nasty spills, and the only thing worse than a big smudge of barbeque sauce on your leather upholstery is sitting in traffic. Happy Trails.
