    Got my butt outta Tulsa this morning... Sitting at the Choctaw Casino till tomorrow and then I’ll make my way down to Terrell... probably won’t stay at the TA but there’s a Quicktrip/Circle K down by the outlets that I just might take a 34 at.

    Deliver Tuesday. Probably insulation or steel wire for fencing as my haul to Florida for hometime. Either that or I’ll get a repower...

    Y’all be cool and enjoy Memorial Day if you’re fortunate enough to be at home :)

    Guess I did most of them. First truck I owned had 10:00-20 bias ply on daytons, truck / trailer both. Both spring ride.
    One pic is me in 1991-92 in Louisiana driving that Transtar 2 on far right in other picture. Still use an atlas, I have a GPS on the dash but it's just for the speedometer, mine is wrong. Force of habit...?? Still have to use phone receivers at plant to get in and out, so I'm still wiping the phone on my britches leg just as @wore out mentioned. That was our day to day procedures.

    He’s a pretty good truck driver, he’s been driving for 30 years. There’s just a lot more to this job than people think. I’ve seen a lot fail.

    I started driving in 72 and got 5 out of 6.
    I never poured alcohol into the fuel but I got passed once by a buddy of mine in his two stick R model Mack with a hitch hiker hanging out the window with TWO cans of ether(starting fluid)reaching around to the front of the right side air cleaner.
    This was the only time that 237 passed my shiny 290 in a K100
