Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Eldon Pletcher. A man in colonial costume is driving a car directly behind a large truck. The trailer has a map of the United States on the side along with the words, "Federal interstate system...1,500 more miles of highways (funds available in 1975)...90% financed by federal funds." The man in the car is holding a sign with the words, "Outer loop freeway...N.O. to Shreveport freeway." Behind the man in the car are many cars and much honking.
