    She’s married. Doh!
    Yup... love this truck more than any I’ve driven. Big engine. Here she is in all her glory.
    I’m actually taking a 34. Wouldn’t have been able to be on time for three runs scheduled this week unless I did.

    I might be new, but I'm not rude. I know why you would assume that, though. See it all the time. :confused:

    Believe it or not. When I’m loaded. It’s always as close to 80k pounds they can get. Very close.
    This truck pulls in the Co. Rockies better than my new Volvo did. That Volvo was rated 425hp. This truck has almost 300k miles and is in great shape. My beloved Annabelle

    A truck with a name? That sounds like a name from something Edgar Allen Poe wrote. My first 6-week trainer gave his GPS a name, but didn't name his truck, being a company driver for a mega carrier, I guess you swap trucks too often.

    I drove a the newer FL cab for a road test, I thought it was a nice cab, had plenty of power.

    Sounds like you're in a good place, work-wise, good on ya.

    I’m guessing that GPS’s name was a vulgar term?
    I name all my trucks. My new Volvo was Melanie. The Cascadia at my school was Clarice. My old Volvo
