    Reefers dont bug me as much. I haul one so gotten used to it I guess. I don't think I've been next to a livestock trailer more than an hour or two, maybe, more than once the roughly 5years I've been driving. Certain trucks when idling next to me drive me up the wall. It's rare though. Seems to be older long noses with the stovepipe exhaust. Not really the noise, but the vibration. Causes like a panic feeling.

    Hogs have that extra spicy, eye-watering stench, don’t they?

    I really love walking a load off parking in the back of an empty truck stop to get a shower and a nap then waking up mid afternoon surrounded by door slammers complaining about how bad my trailer smells.
