@VetteGasser my favorite saying is I didn't know there was a boom between the truck and trailer.

Western millipede rockwagon lol also drive-in old cat powered L9000 rock bucket you had to hold the stick into gears 7th-9th otherwise it popped out of lock.

Had a guy about two weeks ago, I was driving my buddies Freightliner day cab and another trucker of all things passed on the left pulling a gravel trailer, All of a sudden he cut a hard right, cut across my path to hit the right turn lane!!! If we had three feet between us we were lucky! I pulled the horns and was yelling every colorful word I could think of!!! My buddy in the passenger seat was almost out of the window yelling at him too!! Talk about eediots!!!!!

Dammnn rock haulers. 

My favorite is the Bull wagons gotta go.

When I had my own W9 one thought he was faster than i was because i was doing a swift trailer recovery. 

Middle of da night in Texas that good ole boy found out that he had a "SWIFT" trailer he just couldn't get by. 

Left him talking to the rabbits stopped at a Loves fer  some chow Bull boy came in with his buddies talking about how swift blew his doors off his buddies giving him grief hehehehehehehe. 

His buddies were razzing him about how slow his truck was. 

I covered him saying that's how they got their name in the day. 

His buddies told me to flake off.

Okay but as I walked away I said to his buddies there ain't no way a bull wagon is getting around my Swift trailer (crickets) then I heard them tell the waitress to keep their food warm till they got back in. 

They followed me out to my pride seen the 10" big pipes,  22" front Texas square 212 led lights on my kid and chrome for miles.

These guys said i was full of it until I asked the original bull hauler what was scrawled in the dirt on the door he told them I said go look at the trailer doors. 

I had scrawled Bye Bye Baaaaaaby on the back as that's one of the very few times a swift 53 gets to go that fast. 

Miss those wild days but don't miss the chance of getting caught doing a $ & change.

Miss that truck loved messing with the bull wagons lol. 

I think rock haulers are born with 1 brain cell I don't care.

Heck everytime I put something green in my wallet it throws up asking me what all the green stuff is. 

As for time the furballs are monopolizing most of it as we're home because of this crud.

Heck mine doesn’t know what that green stuff is so it never throws up.. Mine hits the bank and wife pays bills and all I see is money for gas to go to work... Fun eh!?

As your modeling projects are going Noooooooooooooooooooooo. 

LOL, exactly!!! I haven't bought any kits or paint in two years as I can't afford them. I do trade when I can but mailing costs are getting to where that won't happen as much either.. I have a few guys I owe stuff to now and keep them in the loop, sucks I can't get stuff to them!!
