Wouldn't trade my Ol'school Trucker life for nut'n
mowerman replied to The Rubber Duck 006's topic in Truck Stories
Not sure if I mentioned this we have a driver that is 77 and still hooking up 3 trailers and driving 530 miles he told me he’s afraid to quit he would like to but he’s been working since he was 10 and 1956 his pop owned some sort of rock yard back in California that sucks that he has that mentality. He will do OK financially but I think he’s afraid he will croak if he quits been talking about retirement for the past eight years was just afraid to go…. Bob -
Not sure who is sleeping sounder ha ha thanks for the photo
-
But some of your fellows want to see this !!!!! All I could think of was why don’t you focus on paying your drivers ha ha
-
Yeah, I have a buddy to of mine lives in Tennessee. He was telling me the same thing a lot of rain, but no snow.
-
Well, I don’t know what happened there took five minutes to download. Now it won’t play. But you get the picture ha ha.

Are used to be a owner op my opinion was always way out 90 cents and you get a dollar back knowing what I know now, if I was going to invest in a business, it wouldn’t be this…. Beat yourself to death and there’s very little return. Well again the weather went to shit around here three day weekend and I can’t even do anything outside.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaarite thanks for that -
Mainly winter hours when I have dark going to work and coming home
-
Yes, I could see that being a real issue and a nuisance. Don’t see much of that around here but then again, I don’t spend much time on the road at night my biggest issue with the headlights is I usually drive a Mustang, which is pretty low when I’m stopped at a light almost every vehicle behind me is higher and lower. Headlights are right in my mirrors.

The conventional was even cooler

Haha that’s my opinion when these 80 mph hillbillies keep passing me in shit weather they keep throwing sand and dirty snow on my windshield… washer tank is empty in an hour…. I 80 needs to drop that ridiculous speed limit… Bob
-
My home value dropped 75 Gs almost overnight as well as the old galaxy’s as I mentioned before not sure what happened to both ?????? When everything else is crazy expensive.. Bob
-
Everything is getting Wayover priced. Not sure how anybody even makes it these days and my barbershop has not raise their prices at all in around four years.
-
Wow last I heard 10 wheeler R Model dump brand new around 60 Gs but that was 1975 Bob

Best wishes bud …. Bob

I don’t think you’ll get this, but some of you probably remember him who came and went went through a gasoline, tanker straight truck gas job came out amazing…. Bob

My mustang doesn’t go any where but work Home Depot and post office 9 years old 37000 miles
-
That’s kinda tough to gave to waste all that rubber but i personally don’t trust them especially at hi speeds mine only had around 36 thousand on them 8 years old could have gone another 10 I’m guessing??? Bob
-
Interesting that you said that because there was two of them teslas passing me on 80 every day. All of a sudden they disappeared when it got cold and we’re gone for about a month then one returned here lately, but not the other one. I am sure they are still testing them … I believe you’re correct they don’t do well in cold areas

Gotcha -
Oh, that truck looks like I my would handle anything
-
I remember an old buddy of mine that passed along time ago he started trucking in 1950 he was telling me a long time ago. His uncle refused to use the first electric light he grumble. There’s nothing wrong with the oil lantern. It kind of reminds me of myself, I kicked and screamed over cell phones and computers. . Now I have both. Yes I am totally open to the idea but I don’t think they’re a good idea for the long-haul for one thing you can’t just call anyone for a road assistance unless you have a blowout ha ha.

Yes, I can see big local fleets , jumping on them, but you’re right TJ my company. For instance, our trucks run day and night shifts electric would not work here.
