    I would say that in my naive 9 year trucking carreer, most of the RoadPro electrical stuff never last long. I think the worse purchase was a 12v plug multiplier with a blue LED light that went up in smoke while not having anything plugged into it.

    Also, a little puny-arse ceramic heater that couldn't heat anything even if your life would depend on it. Again, branded as RoadPro.

    And don't get me started on Barjan products too...

    A bill of goods.

    Actually, it was so poor, it was more like "A bill of bads".

    after i cleaned out most of the stuff from my truck, i negleted to keep my wet-weather jacket with me, and sure enough, it started pouring while i was inside the petro.....so i bought a cheapo orange poncho, and it split in half while trying to fit my fat head through it.

    I bought an alligator head with my ta christmas club points the day before they expired. Gave it to a buddy of mine for Christmas. he put it on the coffee table in his living room. I don't think his wife was too happy about it. I was originally going to put it in a cabinet at my house to scare my wife, but I didn't feel like being beaten to death with an alligator head.
