    Cause you won't be able to run after them, after they rob you. ;)

    Be sure to wear your giant ### headphones into the truck stop, rest area, and everywhere else you stop, so the world knows your a trucker with great fashion sense.

    Even though the bridge has a sign that says 10 foot clearance, your smarter than the average idiot, you can make it fit!

    Cops like doughnuts, give them some every time you go thru a scale/inspection with no issue. If they ding you, fling the doughnut at them and tell them bad cop, no doughnut! It'll make them instantly forget that violation, an make you their bestest friend ever.

    Trust the guy that says..."Trust me..would I lie to you?".

    Always pick up hitchhikers.

    I could park on a different planet altogether and I'm 100% sure a reefer will find me at 3am with my windows open. Never fails

    With winter coming on, be sure to buy new chains. The ones they sell at the truck stops are top notch professional grade!

    Don’t worry about chaining, just drive until you start sliding, put a chain on an outside wheel of the tractor, slap on a bungee and you are good to go safely at the posted speeds.

    Always drive at night with your high beams on it helps everyone around you see much better.. also when a truck is passing you at night make sure to flash your high beams multiple times right as he is looking into his mirror.

    I figured it was because a soft tummy wouldn't leave marks on her forehead like a skinny guy's belt buckle would.

    And a cattle pot on the upwind side.

    If you see a white mini van with flashing red lights behind you in Ohio ignore it. Just some kids pretending to be the D.O.T. upload_2024-10-25_15-53-51.png

    Wide load signs are also great when you take out your fat arse wife!

    If the sign is big enough it can double as a skirt!
