    I was in Kansas one day and a bull rack was on it’s side on a 2 lane. But, it was a dust storm all day long with embedded tornados. I have never seen anything like it.

    Had one rip my tanker bumper 90 degrees one night turning around in a back dirt lot in Nebraska.

    I must have set a record getting my pants and boots on and getting out of the sleeper, as he was headed out of the truck stop when I ran him down.

    He was beyond tired and had no idea what he had done. Very cooperative though.

    I too, was running 75 one night on a skinny road when 2 of them passed me. I also thought I had stopped.

    Um i can drive auto and a 10 speed no problem, see you're one of those knocking company drivers or assume driving for a company makes someone less of a driver.......we all do the job and make the money where it best fits us.....just because you own a longnose pete doesn't make u a better driver than someone driving for Werner or Swift.......

    Also my point was not necessarily to hype up national beef, but an example of a place where i see bullhaulers lining up to deliver, the company trailers far outnumber them and therefore are important to transporting the beef to the stores.....my point was it all works together and being a bullhauler doesn't mean you intimidate others who happen to be slower......but thanks for letting me know you're another one of those drivers to avoid......

    You're not going to get anywhere with individuals who think the vehicle makes the driver. It's like the people who think the only real motorcycle is a Harley, when you're paying more for a brand name that has become increasingly less reliable than lower cost alternatives. Or like the gapped tooth inbred who think jacking a pickup 6' in the air with testicle hanging off the back makes them special.
