Newbie question specifically for Tall, Overweight, Male drivers

Jeans and t'shirts with writing on them such as: I DRIVE TRUCKS AND EAT STEAKS MADE OF TRUCKS.

 

The solution is simple. Get a truck with a condo and drive naked. When you get to the shipper/receiver, throw on some jeans and maybe a shirt of some kind.

 

Thank you. Nothing says "sloppy, nasty, stank, pee-ry, fatarse truck driver" like sweatpants and flipflops. If jeans bother you, put some underwear on (tweed boxers), and pull your nutsac out and up before driving.


Geez.

 

I have never had problems with Jeans but I also haven't done anything really long. Working with a power contractor I would drive about 5 hours a day and work the rest of the day, but also I had to make 18 hour drive(yes I know its illegal but the company I worked for didn't care, made us do it) to Virginia. I had a couple of breaks on the way up, but the other driver scared the you know what out of me and he didn't have a chance to get in the drivers seat until we got back home.

 

How about getting out and do a little walking and cutting out the honey buns and loose some of that 325 and those tight jeans want bother you so much.

 

My husband is right around your size but a little taller, and he shops at a speciality store for tall& big men, they have jeans that are of thinner material, not like the thick denim. They are thin like a dress pant but look excactly like jeans, very comfortable, do not bunch up, plenty of leg room, he will usually wear them with a golf shirt. They are not that expensive so he has several pairs of them for work. When he is just relaxing in the truck he has shorts or sweats for that.

 

It just really sucks to get shut down at a scalehouse because you're overweight and all the company has to do to make it legal is swap drivers.

Zing!

 

There was a drag race team trying to shave weight off the car. Might have been John Force. He (the driver) went on a diet and lost 20 lbs. They gave him a $10,000 bonus for saving them the cost and work involved with taking it off the car.

 

I wear either cargo fatigues like the military style pants, which wear really well, because they are airy enough to keep you cool during the summer and warm during the winter...which is why the military wears them...and they look professional with a uniform shirt.

 

Now that's incentive!
