    Parked at Pilot in nice quiet spot. Went inside. Came out to find my truck between dueling reefers. ... Doh!

    Yes it usually works. Few weeks ago I96 west somewhere between Flint.and Lansing Mi. Had a Black pickup fly up catch up to me and then hangout on my tank tandems and this lasted for quite a while So I figured the little whip over would get them moving And it took a few times but eventually it worked.
    So this Pickup pulls up next to my window and on his door was the word Sheriff. A 4 door pickup with 4 sheriff's on board.
    Once they reached my window they hung out there and motioning me to roll down my window where they actually gave me a thumbs up and took off.

    I’m surprised that didn’t get you arrested for “menacing” or some other nonsense.

    Had a receiver tell me: “The computer says your load is 35 hours late.”
    I said: “Scotty hasn’t gotten the transporter fixed yet.”
