    I have to think about where reverse is in the car and I keep stalling it out trying to start in 4th. I forget that I have to use the clutch to shift it.

    I am glad I no longer have my 2003 Maxima. I bought it when it was still new nine years ago and man I really thought that I was going to hit a big bump and hit my butt on the pavement. That was the lowest ride ever and I have been in a lot of sports cars. I would probably have a heart attack if I still had that car now, because my current car actually felt high in the air before I became a trucker and it feels extremely low now. My next vehicle will be a hybrid SUV.

    You get off at the weigh station ramp and hope the light doesn't turn green directing you to the scales.
