Currently at home and my dad was asking me if I even come accross a lot lizard. I've actually came accross 1 down in Loredo TX. I was so nervous!! I had no idea what to say/do....So me being me I rolled down the window and was like "Ya lost?" She says "yeah and I was looking for some company" I'm thinking #### this is my first run in! So I told her naa I'm cashed out, rolled up the window and was laughing my butt off!!
So anyone have any expereinces/advice of what to do??

I don't say a thing usually. When a lizard or panhandler starts making a line to my truck, I make eye contact, and shake my head and shoo them off with a wave from my hand. I don't care to hear the line of BS that's sure to come. If they don't get it, and still come up to my door, I just tell them I'm not interested, and please leave me alone.

My brother was driving teams once and his co needed to go and he kept driving about an hour later they pull in to a ts and the co jumps out on the step and starts to pee right on a lot lizards head. funniest thing I have ever heard. but I bet she doesn't come up to a truck so fast anymore

I just run 'em off!
Worthless trash deserves no explanation! -
used to go to --think is maxton nc--maybe a heinz factory --there is a bp accross the road --really only place to park---that place is litterally crawling with lizards
pulled in a t 4 am--i thought great--its mt except for a few trucks--i can get a bit of sleep--wouldnt u know it--outta nowhere appears about 6 lizaeds--and they dont give up--one night i even gave the nasty old 5 bucks to keep everybody away--that only lasted a couple hours tho--lots of them about 15 yrs old--little crack hos--very messed---but the nasty part is---they are kept busy there from drivers -
I won't lie, I've had a couple. Having said that, it's been years and luckily I'm 100% clean on everything. To you newer drivers out there. Don't play the game no matter how blue your feeling from maybe a previous break up or no matter how strong the urges are. Even if you get lucky like me, waiting for the test results is a pretty hard game to play. That's all I got to say on the subject.

Had one approach my truck once. I leaned out the window and asked if it looked like I needed commercial company. She said, "Well, I do women too..." Well, I don't. Have a great night.
They usually see I'm female and leave me alone.HFC and CondoCruiser Thank this. -
