    Yeah, let me know how that works out. I gave the ex that same ultimatum, and guess what, she sued me for divorce. For what, doing my job, she knew I was a trucker when she met me. 17 years later, she had enough. Luckily by then, I had enough of her, as well.

    Yeah, I lost my cool '72 small window Pete ( in avatar) thanks to that #itch. I've had good luck in my life, that situation wasn't one of them.

    Could be worse. O.J. got away with murder then still turned around and plopped his ### in a jail cell.

    The cool thing about that one is you could put them in any order and it's still plausible.

    And this is why I am glad I am already single. Ive always thought trucking was a single's job anyway. Drivers that are happily married and on the road; good on them, that's a good marriage.
    Out of curiosity, why not take your wife with you on the road? That's what I would do if I ever got back into a relationship.

    Um, triple post? Silly question, 1st, my ex hated trucks and trucking 2nd, I was always a regional driver, P&D, so no place for her. When I had my sleeper, I took the family down to Chicago one evening to swap wagons, in 15 minutes, my son and ex were sound asleep, and me and my daughter "2 personed it". She really enjoyed that. But except in rare cases, that usually doesn't work out well.:biggrin_25516::biggrin_25518:

    Yep, I accidently triple posted. It didn't respond, so I just kept hitting the "post reply" button. turned out, the posts were going through; I just wasn't getting feedback on it. Whoops.
    Anyways; back on topic. Ive had a date or two not go beyond the first time out because of being a truck driver.
    The drives with your Daughter sounded like they were pretty interesting though. :)
