    We did win the First World War, but we only won the second one by dropping nuclear bombs.
    That’s not really a real win in my book.
    Plus all the “conficts” we started since then and then walked away from without winning.

    Your desire to drive with good driving fat guys in speedos
    Is a little,disturbing. (in a Freudian way lol!)
    I'll take the killers in tuxedos and teach them how to drive.
    A guy in a tuxedo can't be all bad.....:)

    Tell that to a Green Beret or Navy seal. I doubt you would be so smug. It always amazes me the lack of respect for generations who gave all to give you what you have. If the Japanese or Nazis had Nuclear weapons they would have used them to eliminate us from the planet.we used them to end the war. That was a win for the civilized world. We also stepped in and rebuilt there countries,they would have tried to conquer and takeover our countries if they won Your book is clueless.

    So you want me to go to the old folks home and wake them up from their nap ?

    Nevermind, they’d be 88 years old.

    Did you think about fuel bonus? Running the fuel pedal instead of the cruise control can cost 1/4 mpg. That difference would cost me 2 cpm over a quarter, or $675 (give or take).


    How about overspeed? Truck is governed at 65 but the company dinsmgs you for going over 63 on the pedal.

    There are lots of good reasons to say "forget you, get this fixed or I go home".

    Hilarious.
    My first otr truck was a cab over with no cruise.
    The city trucks I came out of were spring ride and Armstrong steering.
