*OFFICIAL* RIU TRUCKER THREAD

My wife's uncle had Chevies all the time. I felt like they were just built cheaper than the other trucks. The door skins were thinner and the trim just seemed cheap. That was a few decades ago though.
That's exactly where I was at with my 2010 Silverado that I just traded in for the Dodge. I got the Cevy 2 1/2 years ago and it had a little tiny rust bubble on both sides of the bed right above the wheel well, in just 2 1/2 years they were rotted right out and looked like shit real bad. I was really disappointed because I liked that Chevy and took real good care of it washed it all the time especially in winter at least twice a week

I still like Chevrolet, the 5.3 V8 is a great engine, but I am also happy with my new truck


Anyways though, I am stopped for the night at a Love's in Bethoud CO right on I25 a little north of Denver. Going to eat and take a 30 minute walk then go to bed and head to Santa Fe in the am

Here some cookies I got at Walmart, they're so good

Shit, that's right down the street from where I live, brother! If I'd have been keeping up with your travels, I'd have met up and maybe gotten you a home cooked meal!

Next time, maybe...

Hey I have a question for truckers I don’t know if it’s been asked or answered before but how do you maintain a CDL license while you have Weed in your system? Don’t they do random drug testing? Do you have to quit weed or is there a way around it? Thanks

What training does a train engineer get to prepare for this type of encounter?
