Next up, whining about all that litter from the hay truck.

Fuggin hay trucks. Schiedt be flyin' off them for 20 miles, cloggin up the grill, won't use turnouts 'cause they're likely overloaded and don't want to lose 5 MPH of speed, speed up on the downhills and don't allow a fella to pass them, then lose 20 mph on the uphill.

Dickweasels, the lot of them. grin

Insurance agreement has us at 65 on the peddle and 68 cruise. Heavy I can downhill faster and they don't mind. Some companies do, and will fire a guy for hitting 80 even for a second, or get written up at 75... That's how it was the first couple of years for me. Truck sending messages to the boss. Theres many trucks on the intetstate set at 63, 65, and 68 is common. I loved 75 with another company and zero extra electronics but an kuuntboss. This company I'm at also doesn't bug me constantly, lets me pick my route, and get fuel as I please.

All sorts of stuff folks are not aware of. Satellite controlled shift points on some rigs per the terrain. Cruise control that drops off as you crest a hill - as you will speed back up with no extra fuel... All that plays into the passing crap. Even on cruise I have to floor it a lot to get the miles I do. Manipulate the cruise and Jake constantly in varied terrain. Different than a manual rig for sure. Minimal bs on this truck. Next one will have more, auto braking, adaptive cruise., roll stability auto braking. BS I don't like. Fuucking buzzers and beepers and bullchit. Too much and I will go elsewhere. So many others are worse though and nitpicking too. Trucking sucks, but not as bad as suckkng black cock at Pilot like Rugertard4Life does. Poor bastid can hardly talk he's so stretched out.


Damn bruh.

sounds like a lot of BS just drivin' truck.

Maybe you should consider being a wildlife biologist?

Great, just what we need on the road, another "farmer" in a semi truck with scheidty fuggin cows and hay flyin' out the back all over the roads.

Y'all farmers need to have professionals drivin' those rigs for you. Boomer can prolly hook ya' up with some of his buds.

And diapers on them cows too.

Statisticians would have fun with this, but I already have come to a conclusion on my own.

These vehicles on the road are despised. Slowin' me down all over the place. Takin' the dogs to the frisbee golf field for a run to stretch their legs, then to the Wildlife Refuge for a cooldown walks and to look at the gooses and ducks.

It's like they don't think I gots better things to be doin' than waitin' on some dang train.

Any vehicle that won't even run the speed limit and they refuse to get out of the show off lane.

I'll follow a cow or hay truck anyday rather than another governed plastic truck with a driver fresh out of Habib's trucking school.

I tell y'all. Best beware of them fellas swoopin' in to the local Academy sports and LGS tryin' to wheel and deal their way to another pistol or a box of 8mm Mouser ammo.

They cutcha rite off gettin' in that parkin' spot in front so's they can get to the counter first.

Don't know if they work or not

I can believe that. My wife is from Michigan and she never used a turn signal until just the last few years, and she is 77. It does save on replacing bulbs.
