    Oh and then we stopped for fuel in gillete wyoming at the flying hook. 5 pumps , all taken . Only 1 guy getting fuel. I parked behind some hopper bottom because he had the hoses in his tanks . It only took me a couple minutes to realize it was just a decoy. So buford comes out of the truckstop gets in his truck, puts it in gear and takes off....fuel hoses was still in his tanks..... I tried to holler at him on the cb but no response , he turned right on down the road dragging those hoses back onto the interstate..... I couldnt do nothing but laugh....

    . I’ve been putting it off. Door panels been off, windows been held up with a zip tie for 2 years or more. No hurry since they’ll just break again. Lol. The longer I waited, the longer they’ll last, once done. Lol That’s my logic. I’ve made a few upgrades to avoid the usual problems like rusty window bracket, gets jacked up and caught on inside, won’t roll all the way up. I painted it first, and coated it with silicone.

    But you have something he doesn't and probably never will.
    Self respect and pride in your accomplishments. That is the reason you post
    your work and opinions and they are discussed and commented on.
    He has nothing to offer and is too busy with the "I" or "MeMe" attitude to be able
    to learn from others.
    Learned all I ever needed to know about trucking the 2nd trip out by listening
    and just observing.

    That is a great way to look at it. I admit those type of people get on my nerves but ive been learning to just let it roll off my back, because it sure aint worth the added stress or frustration in my life

    . I just began Ram heaven in October. Plus it’s a 1099 gig. The big plus is the people I work with (for) are not from the transportation world so they apologize if the work day exceeds 6 hours.
