And to think I rarely use my phone anymore compared to 15 years ago. lol
I can tell you what does really happen to you when you get out without your phone
I forget what he corner is called, but where the pilot is on 58 west of barstow, I stopped just fill my coffee cup, and pulled out. I was minding my own business, just cruising along prettygood when my phone rings and my son in law, who is asleep in the sleeper ask me if he was fired or what. lol
I actually turned and looked to see if he was in the sleeper.
He had gone to the restroom, claimed I looked right at him and he waived at me, and I still left him.
He had to borrow someones phone to call me. lol.
Back up until you hit something, then set the brakes

One time I was working at a shop, and when he towed something in he put in a yard 2 blocks from the shop. One morning he told me to go to the yard and drive a cabover truck back, that we were going to work on.
I did and turned in towards the shop en hit the brakes, slow speed, but not a sign for brakes. he was standing between me and the building and there was a small pile of T post there. I ran over the post and had less than 3 feet between the front of the cabover and he building by the time I found the key. He was mad and stepped around the front wanting to gripe, when I ask by any chance are we suppose to work on the brakes, and didn't he think It might have been a good idea to have mentioned that. lolstayinback, FlaSwampRat and Sirscrapntruckalot Thank this.
