    I'm not surprised. Western only had 3 keys... International, Volvo, and Freightliner. If you could open and start one, you could open and start all of 'em

    It’s nice to be able to lock it in a gear so you’re not lugging along in top gear taching 900 rpm.

    What idiot could possibly think that’s good for an engine?

    Whatever company bean counter that keeps ordering the #### things. Bonus points if the truck throws a hissy fit when you try to lock it in anyway, or straight up doesn't let you in the first place

    How often do you get in a slip seat truck and find a piss jug or a Walmart sack full of poopoo in it?
