The Truckers' Image Under The Driver's Hat. Discuss ways for truckers to improve their image. Urine bottles, trashy truck stops and no truck parking signs abound. How do we change our image and earn respect back?

I agree. There are times when there is absolutely no bathroom facility available. Whether it be six hours sitting in traffic, a long stretch of highway with nothing on it to stop at, whatever. And ya gotta do what ya gotta do. But throwing it out on the side of the road is gross. And the old bottle trick is great for you men, but we poor women, well, that tiny little hole on the top of a bottle is impossible. So you want to talk about floating the eyeballs. Woohoo!!! And we haven't even got the equipment to tie a knot in it till we find a bathroom.

Wal Mart or auto parts store. Find one that looks similar. It'll be longer than it is wide.

Lightbulb Brickman, That Funnel Is An Accident About To Happen

I keep one of these in my truck. Multifunctional (a #2 if I had to), easy to store (for a little while), easy to clean (often), and too expensive to throw away.

I'm thinking the ladies might have a lesser chance of a rim shot with something a bit wider.
