    Volvo trucks come equipped with breakaway mirrors. However, when they meet a Peterbilt at 60 mph on a narrow two lane, its more "shatter and bust" than "breakaway".

    I was telling the Volvo driver to get back on his side of the road as I followed him. Guess his CB antenna is in a field on Hwy 14 north of Harrisburg, Ark.

    People dropping parts all over Arkansas (injectors,transmissions). Between that and the busted fairings in the median, I bet me and Snowman could build a truck OldSkooler's friend would buy.

    Seeing these cabovers bring back a lot of memories. The first three trucks I owned were cabovers. I enjoy looking at old pictures of them and seeing the ones brought back to life, but I sure wouldn't want to drive one again. It also reminds me of how a lot of us started. With a couple of dollars in our pockets, a hope, and a dream. Some of us made it, some of us didn't, but those that didn't make it were never ever talked down to like they were a POS like they are today. That really pisses me off. Those that never try and never dream are the very first to criticize those that do and just need to stf up. I could go on, but I guess I need to stf up.
