    I submitted the 2 stroke Detroit one to that website and some smart### corrected it by saying "Peterbilt never used Detroit engines." Must've been a new breed driver that didn't realize that Detroit was a GM brand up until the early/mid 2000s.

    Watch when they pull the truck out of the garage the first time. Short stacks. They magically grow after that.

    Then when the guy pulls the airlines off. Trailer brakes never dynamited either.

    Ever watch "Blacktop: Murder on the Move"?

    Meatloaf acted in that one as well and it had a cool black Peterbilt 359 in it.

    Nope, no smoking or edibles for me. Can't process the THC or the CBD real well. I get some pretty nasty side effects from it.

    Found that out the hard way after eating a brownie years ago.

    Yeah, not sure if I should request a thread name change. One helluva thread hijacking here.

    Gotta!!! be Bad Pill's. Been told by a Driver that a monkey was wrapped around His windshield wiper by the tail, swinging back and forth on a rainy dark night on the 495S. Texas turnarounds for sure.
