Cats in the truck, how many of you bring yours along?

uh, no...no we don't know what you mean.

what do you mean.?

tell us, tell us what you mean that if a cat comes NEAR your truck, it's gonna get the Australian treatment.

 

Goodbye cat. That's what I mean.

Jk of course, ####s sakes.

 

Kreg joints? (sorry to hijack, but I just have to know!)

 

Pocket holes with a kreg jig. It made me so much better at doing joinery. Previously I used frames or were splitting ends; so much easier now. Just built and added a new cat perch to replace the one pictured earlier.

Gotta fill those holes in, on my todo list.

 

Nice! I have a Kreg joiner as well, and I use it every opportunity I can. I love that contraption.

 

Kreg jig FTW! I upgraded mine over the holidays.

I love the idea of a cat, definitely the only way I could have p**** on the truck, but I don't think I could handle the shedding. The two at home will have to do.

 

I kept it on the sleeper floor behind the driver's seat, and it worked just fine there, but I would've put it in front of the passenger seat if my then-wife hadn't been with me.

Kitties LOVE laying on the dashboard soaking up the sun.

 

I hear cat rebuilds are very expensive, I wouldn't have one in my truck.

 

I’m hoping it discourages my company from having me swap trucks often. Cat joined me at 150k mi on first trk, then a week later they swapped me to a newer one. Had the cat on next one for a few mos until I was off for my injury.

Current trk spent 6 weeks in shop where they had me bouncing around to temp trks; this was before my cat rejoined me though. When trk issues were looking resolved, cat got back on board. Cat and perishables are big headaches to deal with during breakdowns.

So in 2021, my cat ####ted in 3 different trucks. I’m definitely going to mention this if they tell me swap to another newer one. I’ve spoken to other drivers who claim to get a newer trk every 50-100k mi. I’d rather stay in my current one that works.
