    1. Your truck has more lights than your Christmas tree.
    2. Your CB radio has more toys than your kids do.
    3. Hanging off your truck is one or more of the following: rubber chicken, cow bell, fake bull testicles.
    4. You buy a new truck every 3 years, but your wife has been driving the same POS car for the last 10 years.
    5. You park your $120,000 rig in front of a $15,000 mobile home that your late on the payments.
    6. All your friends and neighbors know what kind of truck you drive and what motor you have in it just by reading your T-shirt and/or ballcap

    i'm not sure what your definition of "supertrucker" is or what the common definition of supertrucker is, but here's mine.


    1) Someone who doesn't sleep.

    2) Someone who feels just because he (it's usually a he) doesn't need to sleep, then no-one needs to sleep. And not only does he not fully undestand why other people need to sleep (won't take pills), he feels that anyone that "needs" to sleep is either lazy and or a wuss.

    3) a jerk

    4) Someone that p's out the door, and/or in a jar, and/or on the side of the road.
    NOTE: i am not objecting to the last option as long as it is out of sight and on grass or soil.

    5) Someone who jacks the volume up on the radio all the way while the CB is also up all the way not fully squelched out.

    This is my definition of a "supertrucker;" Peterbilt has nothing to do with it; This is stupid redneck s__t and i will address this in another thread.

    You claim you can make "the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs."

    A driver who HAS run a 500w linear to talk to his fellow supertrucker while bumper to bumper with him while having the echo box whopped out so nobody can understand him.

    *edited to add* Any driver who holds the "Smokey and the Bandit" or "Convoy" as their model as to how they think they have do their job.

    1.If you have ever told a story on the cb that starts out like this:
    Ya'll ain't gonna believe this ####! You might be a supertrucker

    2.If you got a Peterbilt/Kenworth/( insert your favorite brand of truck ) tattoo, you might be a supertrucker

    3.If dressing up for church on sunday means polishing your chrome texas drop bumper and armorall on the tires, you might be a supertrucker

    4.If your momma has ever said these words to you:
    Hey hook your truck up to my trailer and get me outta here these #### neighbors are driving me crazy.
