    Thunderstorm is rolling through so it looks like truck washing and polishing has come to a screeching halt.

    Guess i'll just have to drink beer.

    It sure is nice to be able to see behind me. I keep reaching for the mic to ask if I'm clear to move left.

    when I bought my old IH, it had an Auto Shift and the first trip around the parking lot at the dealer I actually fell out the seat reaching for the shifter. Thank god I was only going about 3mph. That took some getting used to.

    And every once in a while I will hop out of my rig and slam my right leg on the floor board looking for the clutch pedal in my automatic pickup truck lol

    Now try making that turn with this load, I have to make that turn every week and right on my permit it says that route is not for loads in excess of 53' or 12' wide yet they still route me that way at 70' and 20' wide. (For comparison, that's a 53' trailer next to me)
