Would have been funny if someone were asleep in the sleeper!  :D

For DCEPTCN,

Here's a photo of my Dad's latest rig. It was given to him when he surpassed his 2 million miles of Safe Driving.



When your special, you get your truck with all the stainless steel trim, and the lettering on the sleeper in silver.




Nice Looking truck.

yup they do alot of unloading like that. normally they do it in tipper trailers. they look like live floor trailers. they mostly do trash and grain like that.

Maybe if you come to Lancaster Co. PA, give me a call and I'll warn you of the weird shit here. When I went thru Kansas it seemed like it had just the one hiway going thru it with Steak restaurants, grain elevators, and a prison. Couldn't wait to get to Colo. I don't see how you truck driver's do it.


gary.. last time i was in lancaster i was delivering italian ices to a cold storage place by the hearrs (or whateveR) potato chip place. it was foggy and i almost had a heart attack because a fucking horse and buggy was clip clopping past me. i was half awake..


and as any driver can tell you.. if you drive a cross 80.. its a KILLER. might be the worst.

the worst part about driving is when you got the damn asshole cowboy drivers flying around dipping in and out of traffic and you  having to deal with staying out of their way.

Herr's Potato Chips, right. near me. shoulda looked me up, gave me a reason to get out of the shop. Horse and buggies are treacherous on the roads, but really can't do alot about them. I can't stand driving anymore, my wife usually does the driving. She won't drive the motorhome and trailer though, I have to suffer through the tailgaters, people pulling right out in front of me, zig-zaggers, people too slow in front when your trying to get speed up a grade.... My wife says I can't bring my 357 along. Like I said, I don't see how you guys do it.

Yep. Dad's not too fond of it in slick, blustery conditions either.
