    LOL, that IS true! I used to have some SWEET, SWEET chicken trucks! We had a switch where we could turn off our brake lights at night in case we had to avoid a pursuing officer, HAHA. We would flip off ALL the chicken lights and flip that brake light switch and get off a ramp or something...so the officer couldn't see us hitting the brakes to get off and he would go by us. And I mean we had lights allll over our trucks! We would light up the night, literally. I had many people take pictures of my trucks. I remember one time I went by a pickup truck and the guy had a CB...he came on the CB and said "holy crap! I am running 100 mph and can't go any faster due to my governor, I had no idea trucks can run that fast!" I said, watch this...in a minute he was GONE. He never said another word, LOL. I used to love my chicken trucks! Amazing I never was thrown in jail for that or killed! Oh, nostalgia!

    Put 'er in the big cog and let her have her head.
    Years ago, I and another flatbed were blazing toward Boise and we both got pulled over. ISP got us for 68, I think. Had he seen us 15 minutes prior, we would have both gone to jail as we were doing triple digits. I considered myself lucky, especially since the cop was a jacka$$.
