    Remember the purple anti-glare lights fellas used to have inside the windshield? I had a cow truck ease past me Saturday evening that had them. I hadn't seen any in quite awhile.

    I have robbed the ones outta Dads truck for mine. I haven’t got em in yet. 4states has a couple different ones but they are on a pedestal and look more like an outside light.

    You and the OP would be the guys that said we can’t paint main propulsion and customize it because it’s a waste of paint. You’d be surprised at how far a little pride in your ride can go and what it does for morale.

    Pride in your ride whether at sea or on the road exhibits attention to detail, care and most definitely boosts morale, which in turn boosts performance and productivity.

    When you wake up to a nicely done rig that you worked hard for, you’ll go to work motivated. When you wake up in the morning in a plane Jane trash heap…well, you just might be very unhappy.

    Your unhappiness might lead you to log on your computer and post about how others spend their money, how unsightly their chicken lights are and give your advice on how they need to spend their money.

    If you guys ever did make it to a position of leadership, you would most likely be mushroom farmers….that being feeding your people crap while keeping them in the dark and only letting them grow but so much. Hence your incessant need to offer your opinion to a business owner who made it and has nothing but self respect and makes it show in and outside of their rig.

    @Catmando . You keep those chicken lights shining and leave the others to their jealous opining.

    Believe you me, if they could bribe their masters to pass a law against chicken lights…they would in a heartbeat. Jealousy and envy sure are dangerous.

    After reading your comment to Ruthless I scrolled back to see what he said to you. Sometimes I miss obvious things so I read his post multiple times. I can’t see anything that would make you feel like he verbally attacked you, in my opinion he was giving you his perspective. Of all the people on this forum I would very likely take his Professional Advice before most others. I have not personally met Ruthless but, Blair who is someone I consider a friend interviewed him in depth and posted it on YouTube. I have respected the opinions of Mr. Ruthless for many years now because most of what I see him post is professional, no nonsense and to the point. He definitely has the business skills and connections to do things and deliver to places daily that many of us won’t even consider doing. From what I have seen of him, HE DEFINITELY IS NOT AN IDIOT. He cusses like a sailor and if I were ever in the “city” I definitely want to have a beer with him.
