Well now son, if you would give up life as a nice guy for money (which is only promised) I feel sorry for you. I'm one of those dumb asses that did and Also had three divorces (They said you're never home) and I wasn't. About Four and a half MILLION miles later I'm retired. Teamster. Good penson. Had lots of fun when I started hauling cows To Clovis and Hereford and Greely and Chicago (for slaughter) dairy cows out of Wisconsin down to Fla. But then it's on to dry freight. Fun over with. Just turn wheels and look at white lines,dodge cars, drunks, kids, tractors. As everybody knows some of those farmers didn't have a clue. Weekends were fun too with people pulling their boats some with no lights. Used to see women in their car alone and I thought "their husband is probably working". After a divorce I thought she's probably divorced a damn truck driver. In my openion trucking changed with CB radios. Ever Tom, Richard, and Harry started driving or I should say trying to drive and talk. Now I know you're going to do whatever you want.....BUT I would rather die and go to H--l than to get in anything bigger than a 1 ton pulling a tractor.If you see someone coming to try to hire you shoot him and life will be about as bad as driving a truck. And the funny thing is all my friends that have retired from truckin' say we wasted our life. Nuff said. Don

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that.
