    Let me guess...you're also the guy who tosses his piss out the window and thinks it's all right?

    Nope…I’m not a mouth breathing retard. At the very least I would walk it over and pour it out on the grass or dirt, but I usually just put the full bottle in a trash bag and toss it in the trash can or dumpster.
     
    RockinChair Thanks this.

    The clear silicone earplugs are much much better than the foam ones.

    Based on some of the latest replies given above -- this thread has turned into something of a stateside trucking "history lesson"; I...for one...appreciate these perspectives looking back -- & I thank you for your input with those posts.

    I buy Hart ear plugs from Walmart. Put them in, you don't hear a thing. They are great. Also use them when the wife is yammering on about something boring, which I wear them most of the time. Excellent plugs.
     
    Opus, MACK E-6 and Oxbow Thank this.

    I can deal with the backup beeper for a few seconds, but the air dryer that purges every 10-15 seconds for hours on end is enough to make me wanna go postal.
     
    LOTSO, Numb and MACK E-6 Thank this.
