    So I got next to a dude in a w900 pulling a reefer today that was shifting like crazy on 60 in between all the red lights. I'm pretty sure I counted 14 by the time we got to 45 mph just to slow down for another red light. All I could see in the cab was his better half wearing a shower cap and his hand resting on the shifter probably about 8" higher than the bottom of the window. I was loaded really heavy and he wasn't going any faster really than I was in my 11hp 10spd fleety mcfleetface truck. Is this the kind of driving y'all talk about in the truck stop parking lots?

    State of emergency, no hos=blank company check lol. It honestly feels good to be out of the truck, I was getting sick of being in it. Back starting to get sore, legs cramping up a lil. I feel like I accomplished what I set out to do tho. Delivered everything possible, hopefully everyone is getting what they need and I hope I was able to play a small part in that.

    Yeah that isn’t for me. Lol

    You delivering a ton or water I’d assume?

    When I worked for a fuel company every time like clockwork when a hurricane came...

    “You guys wanna squeal down to Texas and haul some fuel and get fema money!!”

    Those dudes would work two days straight sitting in the worst traffic ever. Good money but I always sat them out.

    Yea, just water. I told them I would deliver the mix pallets too but they were afraid of the off chance I get stopped and have something other than water on the truck after I've been on the road for 25 hours lol. I see their point tho and they were able to fill that 45' with water to the door almost everytime I came back in.

    Hell yeah, no weight limits, no hours and you can run off road diesel too.

    It sucked though whenever all the guys would go down south and I’m in Minneapolis drowning in work. I should have just went with...
