    Keith, I haven't been following that other very large thread for a while but I remember you giving up your white truck for your black truck. I knew you continued to pull the cold boxes with your black one, but I must have missed your transition to flats. Are you with CRST Malone now or just participating in a peaceful thread?

    I left JCT at the end of Jan, just shy of my 2 year mark. Brought the Prostar to Malone at the end of Feb. Pretty much screwing off and still making much better money than I ever did at JCT. Less stressful too.

    Less stressful? You mean you don't miss those 2am appointments? I'm thinking you also choose to stay the heck out of CA.

    Would it be a waste of time to try and keep the truck clean and shiny? I have an idea for the wheels in mind that would really make the CRST color scheme stand out. Do they mind team stickers, wrap, or auto fatheads? It's almost football season drivers... You get the gest... Lol

    You'd be amazed what a good coat of wax and.polish does to these trucks.

    I can't wait to find out driver. I'm one of those that take pride in keeping the truck clean and shiny. Just a few chrome accessories, LED headlights and my Panther stickers, she'll be ready to roll this summer. Lol

    Don't miss sitting for 30 hours at tyson either. Did a 4 stopper from Louisville finalling in Bakersfield a few weeks ago. Never minded California.
