    Don't let these guys run you off...

    Most are either just having fun, yes at your expense, but a few will actually try to help you out... Roll with it.

    And you can always change your handle if/when something better develops.

    But I agree, very hard to just assign a name without applying personal details to make the handle "yours"

    No need to give a lot of info but maybe a few of the things you like etc... Or sometimes things come from a twist... Like a big guy being known as "tiny", etc.

    Was your grandpa a trucker?

    What about truckers do you admire?

    How did you come by the name "84square"?

    What part of the country are you from?
    (I'm from IL thus the "Midwest" in my name)

    Do you want a handle that reflects you or your truck?

    I'm a musician and I've got a big 8" tall music note tattooed on my forearm. That's how I got my handle.

    Alright, thank you guys for being nice. I'm just not the best at talking to people. And its hard to read tones through text. But my grandpa wasn't a trucker but he lived on a farm and would use it to talk to a couple trucks sometimes. And I just really like the real old peterbilts. Some of the old freightliners if they are the right years. I think it would be cool to drive those but my mom says it gets boring. I got the name 84square because the truck I'm rebuilding is a 1984 gmc that was built during the squarebody years. Which happen to be my favorite years. I live just east of kansas city Missouri. It can reflect me but I think if when I'm driving it it mightmake more sense if its kinda more about my truck
