    nawh.... it's from this, LoL! @Thull .....BACK ME UP!



    ps: my wife's ethnicity and knowledge of her songs from the 80's, she knew that off the bat. LoL
    pps: ..... nope, I don't pass any trucks besides O/O's that FLY by me, but then again, I drive for one... and I like to get to the finish line alive. That said, I've let Swifties and Primers pass me if I felt better doing so. I'm not governed, just 19 years in the making. Winning in "white" or a flag, isn't winning at all. You've got lots of good advice here, man. Heed it.

    @Skizzo84 .... comments? LoL... welcome to TTR as the others have said. I work for an O/O and you read my reply. Your name / handle, reminded me of this song, LoL. I've been around for awhile, and still don't mess with the passing/better than thou game. I coulda woulda shoulda many times, but I come home every night..... and weekend. Safe, well fed, well paid.

    That's the way to do it! Just go.

    I'm in the right lane for a reason. I don't get the people that will slow down 15-20 mph and wait for some "good buddy" signal that it's ok to pass. :jerk:

    Not a Prime driver. Never was, never will be.

    I'm practicing for when I finally get my own truck. Fuel costs are easily controlled by watching speed and RPMs. More I save on fuel, more I bank for other things (like pay!).
