    honestly i dont know yet. i dont like paying for a truck that is governed at 65 when speed limits out west are 70 and 75...i like to have the option of running the speed limit. My preference. i understand about fuel cost etc. i also dont like paying for a truck with a camera in it, no matter what the selling point is from safety, should be my option as a lease operator. but i can always buy my own truck and drive elsewhere....so those and are really the only things i hate about trans am. i get good miles and i have heather for a dm, for that i am greatful and nobody bothers me except night dispatch with their wanting to swap...my price for a swap..500.00 plus whatever the miles are..so dont bother me. i am comfortable with the load i have at the time..lol

    That may be true but when you get the ticket DOT is going to write it to the company not you!! It's not going to go on your record.. But some companies will take it out of your check.. Lol

    Husband absolutely despised Dana for a long time until I reminded him that the secret to getting a woman's cooperation is to let her know that you are so glad she is there to help you. Once he began starting his conversations with "Miss Dana, I am so glad you are there. Can you help me get this straightened out?" He was astounded at how cooperative she was, if she had the means to help him she did, and if she couldn't then she would apologize. He realized that she has been there long enough to know her job....she just doesn't do it ....the idea is to get her to put in a little effort.
    So there ya go, guys ....today's lesson in Women 101. :biggrin_25519: However, Dana might find it a bit odd if all of you started going out of your way to be charming at once.:biggrin_25522:.....especially you Oh Crusty One!

    Husband has a mouth on him too when he has had enough. The problem was that Dana didn't care ....was almost like a little power trip to her ....Aha, I pushed him over the edge again, I win! Husband honestly felt that way ....that any time she pushed him to that point she felt like she had gained a victory. He just quit feeding the "ego monster". Of course, Husband has that southern boy charm going for him when he cares to use it .....ain't nothing in the world sexier than hearing him call you darlin' ......I don't know how that would work if you have a yankee accent!:biggrin_25522:
