“…out of respect for the way you handle your rig”…the trucker’s mantra. I’ll make sure my son-in-law gets this, if he hasn’t already gotten a lot of mileage out of it.

My 40 year old son-in-law drives an 18-wheeler for Penske, after Blackstone was bought out. I'm embarrassed to say I don't know what brand of rig he negotiates along I-70 but I'll ask when I see him on Christmas day. He leaves at 11 PM from the southwest side of Indy, drives to Columbus, OH, unloads, reloads and has to drive back to Indy's Castleton area for a Tesla drop-off before heading back to the southside. He's burnt-out and hates it. I will say though that Roger treats his drivers well during the Speedway races and my wife and I have periodically been the beneficiary of his employee family perk.

"Speedway at Nazareth" is his favorite song, I bet.

Sounds more like a Mack type.

I don’t know truck brands that well. Mostly for heavy load off paved road applications with often poor road conditions and there Kenworths have good reliability. So just interested, why you said Mack type trucks?

It’s a joke. Mack guys think they are better than other makes. Plus they ride rough.(jarred his brain)
