    And the answer is simple, it depends on the person who is driving the truck.

    It definitely ain't boring, you check your mirrors often, look ahead for anything, talk trash on the CB, then repeat lol.

    But seriously you shouldn't get bored if your doing what you should be.

    The physical act of driving has never been too boring for very long. You either have a woman showing some leg (usually way more, too :) )

    The way traffic behaves around you is also entertaining and often you need a prybar to get your seat out of your crack afterward. There's always something going on over the road.

    You'll meet all kinds of interesting and sometimes annoying people at truck stops, too. No two days will be the same.

    Like my drill sergeant use to tell us in basic training, "It's all in your mother huckin' mind". That little sayin' has so much truth to it.

    The OP's question is so simple they posted the question and never come back! :)
