    You should call her "The Other Woman".

    You know, boobs or wheels are going to be 'spensive, right??

    yeah but i like to ride in style what can i say i've always done that thats how i got this girl. there's only 4 left in the fleet and only certain drivers get em the rest are all kenworths. i was very surprised when i got the call to come pick it up because i was always told only the best and hardest running drivers get a pete.

    Don't worry given enough time our priorities change.
    Put you money away for your own truck one day.

    Very nice trk.But since you're putting all this money into it to make it your own so to speak,why don't you just buy it.I don't think id be wanting to fix a company trk up incase something happens then you're out all that money.I know somebody that drove for Broadway express,they gave him a real nice trk,it was beautiful.He added alot of stuff to make it even prettier and he did'nt stay they long enough to enjoy his fine work on the trk.

    company truck and you are going to shell out cash on someone else's ride?

    I'd save the cash and buy my own truck.
