    The fact a lot of us drivers have a pretty good idea of our exact bladder capacity and what drinks come in the correct size bottle.

    It’s all about timing. Lol I guzzle down the bottled water about 35 minutes before the stop. But here’s something that drives me crazy about truck driving. I don’t know what it is or why it is but when I’m on the truck I got a wake up three times a night to pee, at home, never. Something to do with the idling truck or APU.

    My company truck been at the Freightliner dealership 6 weeks now cuz of the "instability" idiot light. My "spare" truck just spent 3 weeks at the same dealer for who knows what... Must be plenty of O/O's who go belly up no fault of their own.

    How about what it's like to stare at a shipping clerk for 3 minutes while they play on their phone, but you're not allowed to tap on the glass

    I don't honk. I have a beeper to annoy everyone with. Thinking about putting one on my station wagon.

    Reading these posts makes it feel good to be part of the BrotherSisterhood.

    Oh yeah, pulling out of the Pecos West Rest Area WB on I-10 early morning, no sun in my eyes and loaded @80K, hearing my stacks sing, sing, sing. Gives me chicken skin thinkin' about it.

    @Six9GS ...good thread, driver.
