Don't know just things I think about.
I think he's in the clear Tank. He has a Paparazzi license..

Don't know just things I think about.
I tell all drivers or owners that if they do not their trucks photo taken, then I will erase it with them watching me do it for their proof. I am very open about it and many drivers/owners like me taking photos and expanding my horizons. I have never had one driver/owner be impolite about it. They are just trucks. If one gives me a stare, i pull up and tell em who i am and ask to take a pic of their truck. All have been open and cool about it. I have no intention to stop.

I thing the Freightliner you have is a nice looking truck. I wouldn't think twice about puttting it as my avitar. I have always went for price and reliability over show and shine. I wouldn't have bought the T-600 in my photos gallery if I had not bought it for less than ant other truck I had looked at with similar options.
