    Let me shed a little light. 1st. While not called a tip, you get extra money most days I would guess. Fuel discounts, points that are good for free showers, meals, beverages, and truck equipment. So yes, you get a "tip".

    I consider those blessings and am very free to play them forward. That guy that asks how much a shower costs, I cover it. Needed coffee? I gotcha, have a good day. Hungry? Let's get you something to eat.

    The tighter you hold onto your money, the less blessings that can come your way. I /We were they same way when money was very tight. After some sole searching we realized that how little money we had, we always had enough to help someone in need. Then we discovered the more we gave, the more we received to give.

    Don't let the glass in your pockets cut you off from other blessings. That couple of bucks you leave with your meal, may be the gallon of milk needed to feed the kids breakfast in the morning at the waitresses home.

    Pay it forward and it will be returned many times over.

    Not sure. They have been spotted in cooking lake-blackfoot park which borders the south of elk island.
    Ranch on 14 a mile south of me had a few hogs.
    Since the fort mac fire we have had bear problems here too. That fire sure displaced a lot of critters.

    A one hit wonder shows up in our humble little (one of the longest running threads on here) chat and asks about identifying a truck? We would need a lot more info than that to put our vast knowledge of trucks and trucking to work. What is this about?

    “Be better than what they think you are.” In an industry chocked full of scum, it’s not that difficult to do.

    So true. I’ve been blessed and besides it isn’t my money. I’m just a steward of it while I’m in possession of it.

    Well, I totally understand that. That truck caused several thousand dollars worth of damage in my town last night and then left the area. Just wanting to get a hold of the company to help people.

    I can’t make it out from that photo. And Don’t see the DOT numbers. You might check around town and see if there is a better picture. And you might want to think about posting a separate thread on this forum. You posted this in a flatbed forum. That’s clearly a van. And explaining the story. It might get more looks.
