    Just enough to look kinda cool.
    I always wanted to do that when I ran a flatbed tow truck, but never got around to finding anything to work.

    It's FRIYAY! But I'm going in early as another driver is off. And I'm working tomorrow for another driver. But honestly I'm doing it for the money because I hate the hours.

    It comes down to just what cab option you end up with.

    I forget when Mack stepped up the cab features ( Super Liner 77) to get some of the over the road market.

    Looking back to the late seventies the cabs were bare bones 5 speed transmissions no doubt the 250 HP engine option. Rough riding No AC!!

    Not me, I'm working it! Left the house without my wallet this morning. I freaked out when I went to get my work ID to buzz myself in the building and my pocket was m t. That's not a good feeling. I called my girl and sure enough it was at home, she brought it up to me. Did I tell you guys that I have an awesome girl! She even left the money in it, lol.

    Fun, my sterling went in for service today so I got to hop in one of our Pete’s. I like it, it makes all kinds of fun sounds but in the end I like having a little more room inside. It’s hard to not like your rig no matter how crappy your rig might be.

    Happy birthday, don’t work to hard.

    Truck got serviced yesterday and mechanic found a small leak on a tire so off to the tire shop this morning. I’m not complaining cause I don’t have anything hard scheduled till noon and I’m on the clock.
