    hell the only reason my old man tought me to drive is because he hated to run 55. No license, not old enough. we'd hit ohio and he was in th bunk in the blink of an eye.

    I grew up in the truck with him kinda and I can't say he didn't teach me #### as much of an ###### as he can be and I'm glad he was there so I didn't have to go to some bull #### trucking school and learn nothing from somebody who just got their license 6 months ago. He wanted to beat me senseless too when I told him I was gonna follow his foot steps and now I see why. But atleast I'm making bank, cashing checks, getting #####, and driving a range rover (gmc pick up) pretty much all thanks to his old ###.

    LOL

    My old man ALWAYS said the same thing. He would roll in his grave if he knew I had my CDL now and did want to follow in his steps.

    I always got the speach about how I wasn't going to drive a #### truck... I was better then that.. once he figured out I wasn't going to college he sent me to tech school for diesel mechanics..

    then when he started to loose his trucks and to get sick he was all to quick to push me into the drivers seat

    You're not cut out to be a mechanic with your trucker physique. I mean good lord son I don't want my leaf springs breaking when you hop on them to adjust the jakes or something. ;)
