Strange or bizarre tips for drivers

Coke is hard on your system... Proof:

Drop a 20 penny nail in a botle of Coca Cola and check it in a week.
It willl be terribly corroded and paritally eaten away.

Drop a 20 penny nail in a pint of good bourbon whiskey.
Sip from it as you desire and when finished shake out the nail
and use it again. This test can go on and on and on.....

Moral:
Good bourbon whiskey is chemically balanced to make you drunk
and fooliish, not to destroy iron.

 

How about just punch yourself in the nutz instead?

 

I dunno ... you try it and let us know.

 

Thanks for that.



I think I'll stick to coffee though.

 

Spearmint chewing gum works for me when I'm driving and getting sleepy. That and slapping my face, opening the window and sticking my head out, dumping water over my head - but the last time I pulled a nose hair, not only did it hurt, a lot of blood started gushing out! Don't think I would want to follow that advice.....

 

Yeah, I tried that. Not to stay awake but I have these monster nose hairs! Makes my nose run for the next hour and everyone looks at me like I'm on coke.

 

These have been some very interesting tips and posts...

We run reefer loads and had a broom that was a pos for sweeping out the trailer. We finally went to Wally world and spent about $70 on a gas powered leaf blower. OH and a couple of dollars for empty gas can. Took us only 5 minutes to blow the trailer out. I believe the blower can fit under the bunk and there is no gasoline smell.

 

Thats a great idea
We do this
Our warehouse is next to a body shop
One day when blowing out the crap, some gravel found its way into the side of a newly painted car
My fault LOL

 

Lol i might have mentioned this before...darn it, cant remember.

Try not to use the windshield washer fluid buckets and scrubby wiper wands at truck stops. A driver that has exposed fuel tanks might use them to clean their tanks...getting fuel on the wiper wand as well as in the bucket for all to use; and then you pick it up next and wipe that oily diesel onto your winshield which then foams up / smears all over.

 

Quite a few of our drivers swear by that cordless blower that Ryobi makes. No gas fumes or hassles carrying gas on your truck.

I'm gonna get one here shortly, being that I already own a bunch of other Ryobi stuff that takes the same 18 volt batteries. I'm really pleased with everything else they make (especially the caulk gun), so I figure the blower is probably good too.
