Truck Stop Cowboys

Most folks wearing broad brimmed hats now days dont even know what the X value stands for.

 

I pulled a load of Stetson's from a show that cost more than a good used car.

 

Zero, in my case. I have a nice Stetson straw hat at home, but I wear a "Simpson Racing" baseball cap when I drive.

 

I stopped giving a s about the way people dressed shortly after they quit giving a s about how they looked.
Seen a whole lot worse than cowboys.

 

I've worn boots wranglers a western shirt and a stetson since as far back as I can remember, I think op needs to come talk garbage when I'm out throwing chains in a blizzard on cabbage wearing.... stetson and duster nice and warm in the words of the bandit "do the letters FO mean anything to you?"

 

Curb sniffers are gonna hate lol! Combat boots, jeans that fit, and many times a collar. Beats pajama pants and plastic truck.

 

I think it's funny when someone is dressing up rather than just wearing the clothes they're comfortable in. Some are comfortable in slippers while others prefer boots. Personally I like a pair of tennis shoes for relaxing or screwing off. When there's a chance of work being involved I opt for boots everytime. It's funny to me how people wear sandals and even boots in some cases and will avoid manual labor like the plague.
The clothes someone wears is typically a good indication of how handy they might be in an inconvenient situation. I'm not saying that homeboy in trackpants and flippy floppys can't chain up or adjust his brakes but the smart money is on the redneck.
I'm always going over to see what guys are working on just in case they need a tool or some perspective. I appreciate when others do the same. A few days ago a guy gave me a jump in Boise after I changed my alternator. The next morning I gave a guy a jump in Portland and earlier today I helped a guy change out an airbag in Spokane. Rather than judge the guys based on attire I gave assistance as needed and thankfully so did they.
I do judge the imitation cowboys though, they're just so blatantly out of character that it's offensive in it's very nature.

 

Just ask one of those Cowboys how tall he is in "hands."

 

Wait, wait... You mean the guy I saw @Walcott with PRCA and Wrangler stitched into everything wasn't a real cowboy? I mean, I saw him buy a duster in the truckstop to complete his outfit.
