Over the years I've found that it doesn't matter how nice your truck is.....you still have to deal with the idiots. And that's what makes an 8 hour day seem like an eternity.

I totally agree that the US Trucks look alot better than the european trucks. But i think the european trucks are more comfortable. I have a bed, dvd-player, refridgerator, mp3-player, AC and stuff in my current truck. No CB-radio though... |

It`s nice when a construction site is not ready to take your load. To just lay down on the bed, have a cold coke and watch an episope or two of family guy.. I also sometimes go to plants a long way from home, this way I can live in the car. |

some guys from the city plants used to turn the company radio off and listen to the stereo..so they yanked them all out.. you should have seen how pissed they were when one of our guys got caught with a power inverter, tv, and surround system in his truck..he got put in the worst truck at my plant after that
