Supertrucker was NOT a positive term, back in the day. Calling a driver a Supertrucker was a major insult.
They were the guys that looked like photoshoot models for a western wear ad. Not because that's how they grew up, but because they dressed for a "look." All hat, no cattle fit them well.
Drove a company truck they chromed out, held forth at the lunch counter, wouldn't know a hard day's work if it kicked them in the ###. They were the ultimate truckstop lawyers, and had the U.S. Marshall's out on a regular basis.Another Canadian driver, Long FLD, Oxbow and 6 others Thank this. -
I keep Flo captive in the mountains with a ring on her finger, she doesn't get on here much anymore . Otter passed a few months ago. I see Gigs on FB once in a rate while. Talk to RedHotMess on the phone here and there.Another Canadian driver, TheRoadWarrior, Oxbow and 2 others Thank this.

I know. I was a working class driver and dressed as a working driver. Didn't use a chain-drive wallet and all that stuff.Another Canadian driver, MACK E-6, Wargames and 1 other person Thank this.

The term is “NonDriver.” It’s a person who can’t drive, can’t chain, can’t shift, can’t preplan, can’t park,…etc…YET refers to anyone that CAN as a Supertrucker. The NonDriver is a step below a Braindead because the Braindead CAN, but operates on the bare minimum brain functions to prevent mental fatigue.Another Canadian driver, God prefers Diesels, Diesel Dave and 4 others Thank this.

My father would have referred to them as a "Cottonpicker". It took me years to break myself from using that term once I got angry! Dang, I have edited several posts on TTR to remove that slur.Another Canadian driver, Hammer166, Diesel Dave and 3 others Thank this.

JB Hunt carhauling?
Most don't know JB actually started out hauling rice hulls for chicken litter way back when.Another Canadian driver, wore out and bumper Jack Thank this. -
Correct. He did well. I did not know they were hauling cars in 2018. They did try hauling them intermodal for awhile in the 90's but that did not pan out so well.Another Canadian driver Thanks this.
