    Y'know, I grew up in Colorado, and I heard that expression used a lot back then. Seriously, I'd like to have maybe just a little protection.....

    That's the best thing about those roads like 14A and 14. 80ish miles of driving I didn't pass another truck.

    I see guys in newer rigs coming down Lookout, Homestake, 4th of July, and Cabbage rollin 55 or 60 riding the brakes all the way down.

    They're likely to kill themselves in an older rig without these super effective engine brakes and disc brakes. Especially on grades like these, Wolf Creek, or Monarch

    Before you die, you ought to run the old Lewiston Hwy (129) up Rattlesnake & the Grande Ronde— Lewiston ID - Enterprise OR — the smart peoples say you shouldn’t take a truck on it, but many dumb ones do
