Is there something out there like that? My job takes lots of skills but is likely the most regulated (well one of them) and gets a bad rap cause people think we are a nuisance and a dirty bunch of idiots that don't bathe and pick up a lot lizard every night.

No way!?! I know there are some truckdrivers that do those things but truly I have the utmost respect for anyone who drives a semi! Seriously I cant drive anything bigger than a Ford Ranger without gettin scared:) Plus the world would come to a grinding halt if our truckers didnt exist!

@SammyToo: It would. But there are people out there namely environmentalists that wants trucks to be environmentally safe and fuel efficient. Which ain't really a bad thing. California wants every truck to have a filter that costs 20 grand to put on a older truck or buy a new truck. And there are safety groups and others that want to eliminate trucking. I guess I felt I needed to rant

@TheHBKbigred: My bestus since 7th grades hubby is a trucker-out of Wisconsin, he owns his truck and only does jobs that suit him now:) But yeah-they comin down in May again so will discuss this environmentally friendly deal w him-wonder if he will be affected? Are there laws now? and are they in certain states?
