    With ya on that, that’s why I gave up working as a shop foreman and working at dealer shops. I love the peace and solitude of nothing but the truck and my thoughts. Younger generation has no idea what they are missing. Always some electronic device blasting or video game.
    Nice night across ND, WY light traffic and just strolling along.

    Been calling customers since 1989. Never steered me wrong yet. But as they say more things change the more they stay the same. I call customer and get the low down if I haven’t been there before. We all do things our own way.

    You said you don't get lost calling customers. Make up your mind! I think we're actually on the same page here, just a communication breakdown. I've been driving some sort of truck since 92, way before cell phones or GPS, but I sure use every tool in the tool box.

    You are kind of insulting the younger generation (not me) like they're all the same. They aren't. I've got kids that listen to crap music (sometimes) and play way too many video games but all kids and young drivers aren't like that.

    Did you listen to the one when he had Alex Jones on? That was hard to make it to the end. That guy got really obnoxious.
