Now you need to get a blue merle Australian Shepherd to ride in the cab with you. You can even call him The Bear, seems like half the Aussie owners name theirs "Bear" anyway (after you see one of them from the rear you will know why). Tie a bandana around his neck, encourage him to sing along with the radio (yes, Aussies sing) and you will be the biggest chick-magnet on I-40 ;)

Wolf: Got it already. The 70's trucker music is mostly gone though. There's only a few left in bargain bins as RichLevy said or in used LP stores like Plastic Fantastic in Havertown.

Tonchi: I got a pit bull mongrel and a bandanna. Does that count?

Plthijinx: I wouldn't turn down a flying job. I love flying more than sex! And you know what I mean by that. And I saw a slightly used MiG-21 for sale, low hours and two spare engines for "only" $150,000. Wanna go halves? I could always get my turbine rating (ME too I guess) just for the ability to go Mach 2.3, even if I can't do it over lan d anymore.

Bruce: My dog will be spending the time with a friend in MD. My initial period will be driving teams and my dog won't let the other guy into the truck until he knows him better, which takes at least a day. I will be able to take him along later, after I am cleared to drive solo.

Anyway, I'll miss the witty banter here and will return as often as I can, even while on the road. A laptop is a must-have right after a new CB and a few other little items.

Congrats on your new job. I see you're from Hazelton. I live in Plymouth. Howdy neighbor. :D

Okay folks, one last check in. My ride is here and we're loading up the car. See you all in six weeks!

I hope I unplugged the iron...

Happy trails, stay safe. Get paid.

Alright Brian! take it easy and enjoy the road!
hehe can you imagine this conversation?
me/you: "good afternoon Houston Approach, N12345 with you off of La Porte, flight following to Hazelton, Pa."
Air Traffic Control: "N12345 squawk 0203 and ident"
me/you: "0203 ident"
ATC: "N12345 radar contact say type aircraft"
me/you: "MIG-21"
ATC: "oh, uh. um. say oncourse heading and do not exceed 200kts until clear of my airspace"

IT SOUNDS LIKE FUN. ENJOY IT!

Congratulations on the Plymouth...... a lot more room than a Subaru. :lol:

Schune. Please stop screaming. :worried:

Typing in all caps is the net equivalent of shouting.

Good luck.
