    Yeah I have noticed that too at the little truck inspection on 80 just before Boomtown. There will be trucks just rolling thru and the hots will be getting inspected.

    I think it’s minivans.

    Oh wait.

    Maybe the minivans are like Bandit, and they’re just there to get the smokies rolling so the Snowman can keep rolling.

    I will develop an excel spreadsheet and count minivans to hotshots ratio. Fun!

    I remember taking a road trip through Texas in '75. Some counties were dry, others had drive through full service bars. The weirdest came in a county I can't remember. The woman at the window, serving us our mixed drinks, asked which direction we were headed.

    "East".

    "Oh, then here are some straws, but DON'T put them in your drinks until you cross the county line. In THIS county it's illegal to have a straw in your drink. In the next county it's illegal to have a drink without a straw".

    !!!???

    "Mam, we're just trying to drink and drive".

    "But you gotta do it LEGAL!"

    Didn’t you read in some other complaining thread that $67 a week would be good money at WE for some drivers.

    LOL

    Wait, I thought HFC's were that stuff they banned in the 70's because it was killing the ozone layer? No wonder it tastes so good.

    Boomtown is just west of Reno. It's just a casino and a chevron station. But has about 30 truck parking spaces
