SuperTrucker 'Fingerless' Gloves!

I have worn fingerless gloves from time to time, WHILE FRAMING A HOUSE! I can't stand any kind of "driving gloves" between me and the wheel. At least now I know not to be "tempted" to use them as a driver, its going to be tough enough as a newbee. Dont want to give you all TOO much to laugh at at one time!

 

...my trainer pointed at a spinner knob on a parked truck at the Love's, and said he'd have one on his International wheel, but as a trainer, it wasn't allowed...
...my claim to shame was rolling Kite tobacco while driving on that avatar's steering wheel while driving.

 

That is too funny. Good shot. ROTFLMAS

 

I wear boots, straw hats and a big belt buckle too. Boots because they're just plain comfortable, straw hats because they're ventilated yet keep the sun off my shaven scalp (and I kinda like em anyway), and the belt buckle was made by my father when I was a kid, from 2 pieces of pipe and an Eisenhower dollar coin (tails side out to show the eagle flying over the moon, despite the lack of an atmosphere...)

 

I'll skip the gloves, but i'm keeping my cowboy hats and boots. I agree about the hats, best sun protection around. And the boots are easy to get on and off. They do suck on ice and snow though, probably need to use the loggers then. That is one cool buckle, i'd keep wearing it no matter what anyone said!

 

while i was in iraq i wore fingerless gloves all the time. the sun on the steering wheel made it so freakin hot. also made the m4 i carried hot but needed to be able to pull the trigger. i plan on having a pair in my truck to use when working on the truck but not when driving unless i need to cause the steering wheel is hot (not likely

 

I had them install a roof in my truck, really solved that old problem of sun shining down on my head. Talk to your shop guys, maybe they can rig one on your truck as well.

 

A roof?? Wow, you must work for one of them there fancy schmancy companies that probably even put seats in ur truck instead of a milk crate.

 

Got me a folding lawn chair in place, ran a few nails down through the floorboards to hold er' down....
