70mackMB Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago So, how many of us remember people from back when. Do you remember them by name or CB handle? l do better with a handle vs a name. When we were at the National Truck show in Lexington Kentucky 5-6 years ago. A guy came up and stood beside me looking at my sons truck. l asked him if he was ever in Nashua NH and drove for Coke Cola on Rt101A? He looked at me like WTF, when he answered yes l asked if his handle was "Loose Caboose"? He grinned and asked my name which he didn't remember. But when l said "Kamikaze Pick-up" he remembered me as if it was yesterday. But it had been well over thirty five years or more since l had spoken to him. Some people l never knew their real names! lol .....Hippy Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76591-mack-cb-radio/page/2/#findComment-595039 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Same here, bud I only knew them by their handle and some of the fellows through the years I talked to for a number of years and never saw them. I’m sure you got the same stories. You know how it goes. Same truck coming at you at the same time every night. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76591-mack-cb-radio/page/2/#findComment-595042 Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many had their own chicken lights on the mirror in combination with the antenna mounts. Some had lights in the windshield or on the air foil some how or other. Back when it was fun! .....Hippy 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76591-mack-cb-radio/page/2/#findComment-595050 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Yes, back when it was fun hell, I forgot about that. Yes, I used to run 2 Amber lights on top of my CB for ID. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76591-mack-cb-radio/page/2/#findComment-595058 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted 15 minutes ago Share Posted 15 minutes ago Speaking of the old days that old buddy of mine just messaged me a little while ago from ESTES I used to run with. He was pretty good at keeping in touch Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76591-mack-cb-radio/page/2/#findComment-595061 Share on other sites More sharing options...
