    Darn I just got back home and was ready to adjust the clock at my house for the right timezone lol. I also find myself going a little out of my way to throw trash in my car away at trash bins at random fuel stations instead of throwing them away when I get home. BTW the weird thing is now when I go home I seem to go back into normal civilian 4 wheeler mode as if I never drove a truck which is a great thing.

    Leaving your car trans in neutral. Going for another gear in a 4/5 speed and your already in the big hole. Using your blinkers all of the time.

    ...Your wife tells you "You're about to blow past the weigh station" and you almost quickly move over until you realize you're in your personal car. Then you give her a dirty look for playing a mean trick on you.

    ...you debate if you should stop at the Agriculture Station because you've got a sack of peaches in the car.
