    How many miles are you getting sitting on the side of the road waiting on road service to come out and change a blown tire?

    It's amazing how a simple tip of checking your tires with a gauge can turn into an argument. Sooooo whack.

    You would be surprised what I find unacceptable in a 18 wheeler. Sometimes a busted toggle is all that is needed to make me go on warpath.

    I honestly can't say I was the greatest at pre tripping or taking care of equipment as a company driver. Owning a truck gives you a whole new look at everything. If I went out of business and decided to go back to company I'd be king at it though.
