Big Rig

[rockpt]

Posting this here cause one of our regulars runs a big rig...Benelli Dude.

Check out the DVD "Big Rig" and see what our truckers deal with...high gas prices, govt. regulation, etc.

Hats off to the men and women who make our economy run.

Thankfully I am company driver so the only expense that comes out of my pocket is what I spend on food. Everything else the company covers. Go to the west coast and back in 4 days driving team. Only job I know that you get paid to sleep. Love them mountain states. By the way its less than 2 months til Ontario duck season. Bring it on!

Where did you find the DVD?

[rockpt]

At my local video store. It won a bunch of awards at film festivals. They make the point that if the truckers went on strike, the entire economy would shut down in three days. Has some good truckin' music, too.

They wrote a country song about Benelli Dude's travels...

something about deer on the grille and heartburn from double cheeseburgers.....

And B-Dude it's exactly 58 days until duck season!!!

I have taken out 14 deer with chrome since I started driving. Even a few nice bucks. Cant slow down like you can in a car. I seen bumper stickers on trucks that read " Without trucks America stops!" lot of truth to that.
