Mine was at a rest area, in pouring rain. I went thru my wing window, too. But since the ProStar windows are fixed, it was my winch bar that went thru the window. Punched a neat round hole just above the door lock control... and turned the rest of the window into modern refractive art. Lol Covered the whole window in duct tape and after unloading, I forked out $250 for a mobile glass repair truck.

Worrying about what other drivers may think.
CaptainTightpants, Ghost Ryder, g.o.a.l and 5 others Thank this. -
Had a bad habit of pitching cigarette butts out the window. One day out in god knows where this biker passes me and gets just past my front bumper and throws me the finger. Well i couldnt figure it out for about another 10 mins when i lit the next one up why he was so pissed at me. Sorry dude who ever you were. Always use a butt can after that!

AND the disgusting one. trying to throw a cup of piss out the window and not reaching out far enough first at 65 mph. Yeah gave my arm a nice bath
And just why are we throwing out the window this? Do you not think that your pee didnt not only coat the entire side of your truck but anything behind it? What you can't stop along the road and pee? And this is the type of up and coming drivers. Use your frickin head.. First pee bottles, and now this? Why don't you just cut a hole in the floor boards and use that? -
Ever heard of fires? Pitching butts out the window is not only littering , but is against the law as a fire danger. Many fires get started this way. I had an uncle that lost most of his barley crop from some yahoo that flicked his butt out the window. Ever heard of an ashtray?

Set up an account on TTR stating you have 15+ years of experience but not knowing squat about the industry. Not naming anyone in particular, but I raise questions about your experience level when I say certain things that should be common knowledge, and you question it.

Mistakes everyone knows that you're a rookie? Hmm?
1) Driving a white truck, that says Swift on the side of it.
2) Driving a blue truck, that says Werner on the side of it.
3) Driving a orange truck, that says Schneider on the side of it.
4) Driving a red truck, that says CR England on the side of it.
If we see any one of these things, we have a good feeling you're a rookie.
