    I've got about 2.3 million. Sold truck and trailer in July 08. Haven't had any tickets since 1989.1980's weren't very good to me. Ran like crazy and the driving record showed it. No accidents but like a lot of other drivers the 55mph limit wasn't my strong suit.

    3 million +, 27 year, no accidents, tickets more than my share. As far as the good old days I think most driver forget what it was like to drive without A/C, Pwr Steering, and lots of other improvements to numerous to mention. The good old days had there rough spots. My first CB Radion was a 4 channel crystal controlled, tube type Johnson Viking Ranger Silver Face this thing woud zap you every once in a while just to keep you a wake. I had a Muntz record player played 45's but it was only good when you were parked. And a Muntz 4 track tape player with a spring reverb for that stereo sound. Ray Price and "For the Good Times", Buck Owens "There gunna put me in the movies". Now granted I started out in a fully decked out Kdub because it was my Dads old truck... He got a new I got his previously owned.... Now that was truck in. 350 Cummin's with 5X4.

    I have a little over 2 million miles behind me now . My first truck was a KW cab over with a 350 cummins 5x4 tranny . It had air assist steering which could be turned off to manual steering for better winter driving . Thats back when party row was party row and we'd sleep with our windows down !!! :yes2557:

    Anyways I have had tickets when I was younger and spent alot of time in the left lane .

    Never an accident , no tickets for years now . I'm one of those drivers with the big hoods that everyone passes everyday . I just wave a smile as you all blow smoke .

    Anyways everyone be safe and try to be nice to the other drivers while your out there.

    Be safe ,:biggrin_255:
