    and mirrors and brake pedals, and having to unhook the 5th wheel manually. Blue Beacon and Frebreeze is already trying to configure a Fatguy Wash for you guys who can't reach your arse to be able to go in public without choking young children and attracting flies.

    Nope super trucker is the guy at my terminal a few days back in the lounge area . He said he drove 200,000 miles in 6 months :biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559:

    I listened to him tell two people this and then I asked if he knew how to do simple math ?:biggrin_25523:
    He looked very puzzled :biggrin_2558:

    To my understanding a supertrucker is someone who wears their enormous trucking bluetooth set, 24/7. A supertrucker parks on the first pump closest to the door only to use the bathroom and load up on more junk food because he is too lazy to walk any further. A supertrucker goes in the hammerlane to pass one truck and it takes him 4 minutes to accomplish the task because he is going 1/4 mph faster....

    Does my headset bother you as much as your flip-flops bother me?
    I like the headset because I hate holding the phone to my ear, although, usually, I leave the phone (and headset) in the truck, but, since it bothers you and labels me a Super Trucker, I'll make sure I never wear it in case we cross paths.

    Labeling someone that parks in the fuel island to go to the bathroom as a "super trucker" isn't really valid.

    If the only lane that is open so I can pull through and to the yellow line is the first one , well then thats the one I am going for. Its not because I am lazy either . Its probably because I had to pee for the last 150 miles and I for #### sure not gonna park in a space just to be inside for 5 minutes.

    As far as the 4 miles to pass another truck . Well thats just stupid , but yes alot of guys do it . SMFH at them for sure.......
     
    Joetro Thanks this.
