    I’m also a bit of a pessimist, and I say it’s all going to zero! Everything!

    maybe that’s a bit dramatic, but I seriously have a tough time seeing things take a turn that is positive for everyday drivers/workers/americans.

    there has to be a very fitting to quote to insert here I just can’t think of it right now.

    I can remember when gas started getting crazy. I graduated high school in 08 right when everything was going down and gas started going insane not long after

    Nobody is ever too busy to get a truck wash. Dirty is just a lazy choice.

    If the company pays for the wash. That company he's mentioning is a company truck.

    Make the move into something specialized. Hazmat. LTL. Something not everyone wants to do or can do.

    Either way, still a lazy choice, especially in that line of work. If a company limits or doesn’t pay for washes I wouldn’t want to be an employee there.

    Sometimes a picture is worth a few words in a quote. Like this?

    Was originally thinking of the missile ride from 1941 but this may better represent.
