    Yup I can see it now. Post reads "I rubbed the paint on my truck, can I be rehired?"

    If that's a cement truck, I'm a jet airplane........ Idiot reporters. I have never understood why news agency's sent the least knowledgeable reporter they can to a story. They'll send a guy to do a report on purses. I've never understood that. As noted above, its a cement pump truck.

    I bet the DOT took his license on the spot. If they didn't, the driver should hand it over voluntarily.

    Actually, it's a concrete pumper. Portland cement, lime, aggregate, and water are the common ingredients of concrete.
     
    4mer trucker and Grumppy Thank this.

    Yep a cement pump. You'll see em sometimes on high rises pumping cement up a few stories. Pretty common

    And I agree, but it was already referred to as a cement pump, so I went along with the quote to keep from confusing the post.
    It also, depends on where you live. We call it a Coke... some people call it a soda.
    Some call it cement. Down here in the south its concrete with a heavy, drawn out pronunciation on con-crete. We never pour cement in the south. It's always concrete to us.

    Alas it is in Maine. Another kid strung out on something as Maine can get very boring in the off season.
    Here it is "cement"
