    I was looking through some pictures and came across this one. I'm wondering if he was giving up cleaning the interior and abandoned the vacuum there, or perhaps it was the promise of a free vacuum that drew him to park in that spot in the first place. Maybe that's one of your guys trucks and you can clear up the burning question. Why is the vacuum sitting there?

    Judging by his dash, it clearly didn’t come from that truck. Gross.

    I couldn't tell if anyone was there looking at me when I snapped the pic. Yeah, DOT either scratches their heads as he passes through or pulls him in for a closer look see.

    Maybe he was giving up his old ways and was going to give it his best.

    First year as a driver I bought a dust buster, but even that was taking up too much room in the truck, so I threw it away. Now I just use a simple brush and piece of cardboard as a dustpan to clean the floor of the truck.

    The dust buster was just one of several things over the years that I couldn’t stand having constantly get in my way in the small confines of the truck. So I left them near a truckstop dumpster.
