    Reminds me of those people that would buy a junk car and just drive it untill it broke down or was impounded. They would just get another and do it all over.

    Trick to being left alone by DOT is to buy a turban or sombrero and buy a white volvo with a foreign flag for a sleeper curtain.

    I saw a white Volvo in a Wyoming truckstop. It was registered in the Chicago area. As I pulled up checking out parking spots, I noticed the right side of the sleeper was dented all over. The mirror had been "repaired". I can't remember if they used duct tape, wire, or bungee cords, or a combination of those. Obviously, the truck had been on its side.
    I kept movin'.
