You boys go ahead and clog the airwaves with some ratchet jawing and call a trucker "Good Buddy"
He'll seek you out for some aggressive education because a Good Buddy is a fellow who goes and gets a blow job and brings one back for you.

How many lot lizards have you had approach you, Neal?

I once saw a fine little blonde in a T-Bird pass me out in Nevada that bore a personal license plate that read... "I STRIP"
Wish I could have caught up with her.

Keep it in your pants. Itchy rash at 75 mph with a full load on is no fun at all.

I was cruisin' up I-75 in Michigan on Fathers Day a few years ago, bored to death, an older station wagon passed me. I didn't think anything of it at the time.....Just another 4 wheeler...I caught up with it, he was still in the hammer lane, I got about half way past it and he sped up a little so that the drivers' door of the truck was even with the passenger door of the car. He gave the little toot of the horn, I looked down (cab over) and his passenger flashed me the biggest set of hooters I had seen in a while...Made my day!

Schneider trucks won't do 75 MPH. Though he'll wish it did if he ever gets a close up look at one of those lot lizards

The sleeper creeper I saw on the Northbound side of I-75 at top of the hill at Jellico was a looker. Her Mother on the South Bound side wasn't too hard on the eyes, either.

I do....but I mainly want one for road trips, coordination between my friend and me when we're driving separately. It's a lot easier than using a cell phone. Also, lot of them come with NOAA weather channels...it'd be good for emergencies and better than the emergency service scanner app i have on my phone.

HAM sounds expensive. I've got all the classroom work done to operate some VHF radios for Civil Air Patrol...just need an evaluation and signature by the Communications Officer to be certified...I'm thinking of doing the Advanced and Master ratings.

I'm sitting at a customer in Boardman Oregon waiting to be loaded for my back haul home to Ontario Canada and came across this thread. I thought i would step out and take a pic of my truck. I also thought i should add a pic of my loyal co-driver.

Keep-er shiny side up and safe hunting

I'll bet your co-driver never complains about the way you drive.

NO NEED! I just renewed my passport so I can get to my retirement/escape home in OBAN, Scotland. The Passport book is now issued with an optional passport card (same size as your DL) good for all US citizen all land travel between Canada And Mexico; The original booklet with visa pages is still for air travel. The card was a few bucks extra but is the finest ID on the planet and very state-of-the-art counterfeit-wise. Goes nicely in the laserproof stainless wallet alongside the DL!

Anyway, you truckers, feel for the long distance coach drivers, they do mileage and have to deal with the great unwashed whinging behind them.

At least cargo doesn't complain, well...it might moo, cluck, neigh or bleat in some countries...
