    Well, there's some real "girly-men" out here acting tough. Mommy raised them to think they're so special and they just can't understand why the rest of us can't see that. They're the ones that got a trophy in school for just showing up for class.

    Same people who buy a cookie cutter house in a new development next to a land fill and then demand something is done about the smell

    I'm starting van but might switch to reefer. I like the noise to be honest and someone said in the summer time, it's nice to open those trailer doors and get a blast of cold air when you do a temperature check.

    Not sure if reefer is western 11 though. Has to be 48 state. (Edit: Apparently Interstate do a western 11 reefer)

    Just got off the phone with Interstate. They want at least 3 months of driving experience first.

    Hauling reefers has increased my despise for walmart, tyson, albertsons and many other companys who I try not to frequent their business...there is too much wasted time in sitting and waiting on shippers and receivers...they can be late loading you and mess up your entire trip plan, but don't you dare be late delivering that load that was already late when you picked it up...yeh, no thanks, no more reefers...
