    I stream music or whatever on Spotify all night. Had my fill of Sirius. Also carry a loaded USB stick in the event of Armageddon

    I never drove a CAT but my version of that years ago was the E-6 Mack rattletrap. :D

    I have Amazon prime which along with free shipping gives me free music and audio book streaming. Oddly, I’m not real big on audio books. I like reading them myself. I can clip along a bit faster than the audio version so I don’t use that benefit much.

    As far as the OP, I bet he’s 12 or with hands molded in the shape of a game controller.

    I’m calling you out OP. I challenge ya to a game of chess. Time to see what ya got champ! 5 Kentuckians says I can check mate you in 5 moves or less.

    There's something to listen to for just about any environment. I have one pandora station for rush hour and another for more mellow in-between times. A few favorite podcasts that I follow. My audible library is closing in on 300 titles. For any fellow horror fans, I recommend Stephen King's Pet Sematary for some night driving. The movies were a little disappointing but the book is brilliant. From a parent's perspective probably the scariest book I've listened to.

    Probably one of the reasons I got into solo driving and never much team.
    Loved it back in the day when I could take off w 8 philly stops and I'd bring a couple cases of cassettes to ride by.
    Now it's satellite radio and CDs.
    I own near 10,000.
    Couldn't roll without music.

    What a coincidence; I carry a USB stick loaded with Armageddon. :)
