    You need about 60 more chicken lights on that Trailer. Get rid of the headache rack. Get some straight pipes, and big CB radio. Fancy antennae's pointed forward, so they sail straight at 80 mph.

    You need to learn to speak broken English.
    You’ll get too used to the noise. You’ll need one of my “reefer teddy bears” to sleep on home time.
    Seriously... you like that. You’ll love dry van. Much better schedule. I got 4200 miles last week. 3973 this week.

    Hey, what gives, I thought you were done? See? Not so easy throwing in the towel. Why, I've quit,,,and went back a number of times.
    Re: reefer,, far as I'm concerned, and I did it all, you picked the worst division of trucking to be in, sorry. Since you gave up before, I predict, a couple months in with reefer, you'll be ready again,,
     
    Coffey, Lumper Humper and D.Tibbitt Thank this.

    Be careful with that exemption. There actually has to be a shortage of what you’re carrying. I know. I’ve done food dry van that wasn’t a shortage of. Didn’t qualify for the exemption.
    Even though many cops and dot officers would understand that coffee is always an emergency. :)

    Do you wet your towel for extra safety when nearing the fires? :D

    In all seriousness congrats I bet that’s paying very well.
