    You ever find out about that tax refund for killing bugs on our nations highways?

    Will company drivers be included somehow?

    So help me out here #5.

    I found a truck I'd like to buy. I'm not sure if it's a good idea because it has a few minor issues, but the seller is saying it's nothing I couldn't fix in a weekend for only a few hundred bucks. He's asking $82,383 for it because of a fresh inframe on the engine. When I asked him if it had paperwork that outlined all of the work done he said "Nah, my cousin Ken did it and there's no record".

    Seller seems like a trustworthy sort so I think I'm going to take his word for it.

    Here's a picture, she's a real beauty. Think I'll be doing coast to coast runs after I get the minor issues sorted out. Do you think I'm wrong for wanting to send him a cashiers check tomorrow?

    I was up in your neck of the woods this morning east of Gordon. No turnaround and a mile back in the woods. IMG_20190807_102830902_HDR.jpg

    This x 10. You know none of us entered this world knowing a dam# thing about anything, we all had to learn. Some learned in a different era early in life, some later in life but we all learned. I don't care what you drive, who you drive for, just do it to the best of your ability and in a safe manner. I treat everyone out here with respect, unless given a reason not to. I don't let someone's appearance change that because I have no knowledge of what they've been through that day but I do know they are out here trying. We all know no matter how much training you receive it's a whole different ball game when out here flying solo and the pressure is on, some fold and some excel, but we all have to share these highways and byways regardless.
