    The driver is a outsource line haul. I was plenty pissed that some jack hole with the same name on his shirt did that to any driver.

    Got it. That sucks. They must be hiring swift rejects to load the trailers.

    From what the drivers tell me, the only 2 things they seem to care about are lunch time and quitting time...

    I did four local runs to and from oil rigs in the OKC area today. Ran 378 miles, including deadhead, and generated $1300 to the truck.

    This was my last load, drill pipe to an oil rig that got hammered with the heavy rain a couple of days ago. I managed to stay out of the worst of the muck.

    I'm not sure about that front bumper still. I know it's better than what ya had. I mean no disrespect but it kinda looks like lipstick on a pig. Ya still have a pig in makeup end of the day.

    And I'm in the same boat. Pulled onto a farm yesterday with lots of cool guy Petes and COEs....driving a Volvo. I just wanted to get gone it was embarrassing.

    It's difficult for me to say this as a long hood kinda guy and having previously owned a t2000. I think it looks good. Goes well with the color of the truck

    Now I am realizing that bumper is a tad too low for off road. Thank goodness it is strong. Now I need to raise the suspension. My brother did just that with his T2000, putting in beefier leaf springs and heavy duty shocks. I will follow suit, the original leaf springs have about had it.

    I noticed that height. Get too far north in winter and you'll be plowing snow.

    What ARE these called? Why are there different sizes?

    And why are there really small ones in NY and PA, but big ones in KS and TX?
