smh just another reason not to call us professional.

 

This thread title cut off as "Crash in AL cause by driver pulling his own..."

Risky click of the day.

 

So we've gone from "choking my chicken" to " pulling my tooth"?

 

While I certainly don't condone this kind of action, dentistry on the road is a pretty hard thing to deal with. Some truck stops have dentists, but if you don't have ins. it is pretty costly, and most dentists won't even take my state run ins.

 

15 years ago I drove for Air Container Transport on a dedicated airfreight run SEA PDX SFO there were 3 drivers each of us would drive 2 weeks on 1 week off some times the truck would turn back at Portland instead of Seattle so I would drive my BroncoII to PDX and thane the next trip North all the way to seattle if we had room on end of the trailer I would drive in to the warehouse and right on to the trailer I used nylon straps and would strap it to the floor I would leave the truck in 4wdlo breaks set. I did this approximately 6 times in three months a lot cheaper then renting a rental car to get home on

 

is anyone else confused by this post ???

 

used to have a good dentist at Iowa 80 , that was years ago.. i remember one night we were there doing laundry and the power went out....haha yep meds must be working today i am loopy

 

Hi GtO, Pretty sure they wanted the "hauling cars in a trailer" thread.
