    In Soviet Russia!

    I'm slip seating to an auto every other week for a little while.
    When I get back in the 10-speed, I'm like a giddy little kid. Lol. (You mean I get to drive the truck! Not just hold the wheel and stomp the accelerator! Yay!!!)

    At the very least when I get one it will say "Peterbilt" on the hood. Not much of a consolation though, since I won't be very happy when I have to part with my 10 speed Mack that I've been in for almost 11 years.
