    Posted in "trucker's image" but hasn't got much traction. Check out this 5 minute interview with a 74 yr. old veteran of the highways.....Mr. Spooner. Wish there were more like him left. Hope the link works; if not just look up "big rig videos" on youtube and his interview is the first one in their playlist.

    Kevin Rutherford definitely wouldn't approve. He would want a younger driver that didn't know the ropes so he could pay less.

    Imagine growing up near the guy. Or working on that 61 a few times or the other yellow needle nose, a 65 with a 48 inch unibilt flat top. Guys the video doesn't do him justice. My signature which is borrowed says it all, you can't buy cool.
