You ever hear of Kenny the gambler Peterson he was very fast

I known in my heart and mind him and my Dad are trucking for God. He and my dad where great friends. But love to out do the other. But Shaker told me a few months before he passed if he did half of what was told on him he would be in jail. He also said there was no way he could stop that crap. RIP my friend. Also RIP Big Iron who Eddie raised more or less.

Anyone have any leads on the whereabouts of either of the kws or Pete's shaker owned? Looking to buy one

I've been around trucks. My whole life started driving in 1990..... Had the privilege of meeting him at the 44 truck stop in Lexington South Carolina just a couple years before he passed but he wasn't Trucking anymore.... I always love to hear his stories... Diabetes is what got him...

When I was 22 years old in 1992 this truck was my front door running 80 west came out of Walcott just got got out of the blue beacon driving 1977359 pete got to run with this truck to Williamsberg ia pretty much left lane to Williams berg God bless😊

I'm originally from Southern Ireland, I met eddie many years ago around December 1986 near Barstow . I had a buzzin dozen KW w900 with a 5 x4 . We were both 100mph plus I had fear of tyres popping. Eddie took off I never seen him anymore . 10/4 brother . America has been good to me . I have great respect for all Americans . God bless you all . 🇺🇲🇮🇪

I had the privilege of working for a local Legion, although not as famous as Shaker. Wayne Hayes aka "fat boy" Shreveport, La. was from what I learned while working there was an extremely popular during that same time frame. Fat boy had 2 CAN'Ts . You CAN'T do it, you CAN'T stay😂

R.I.P EDWARD GANTT. TELL. BIG IRON, FITH WHEEL,DOUBLE T,AND SITTIN BULL. SURE DO MISS YALL. BE GLAD. YOUR GONE, CAUSE TRUCKIN SUCKS. JUST LIKE NASCAR. SEE YA TRAIN.

I heard his father in law kept him in trucks to keep him away from home

Those were the best days of my life. Running with Eddie into Hunts Point. How we made it I’ll never know.

never got to meet Eddie gant aka southern shaker but heard stories about him growing up including the Arizona one talk about a real outlaw he was it. Anyway Eddie will meet you at that big truck stop in the sky.

I started in 78 and rumor was Southern Shaker had to have his truck hauled out of California,,, was that fact ?

I used to run into Shaker quite a bit back in the day and he must've taken a shine to me because he would look for me on the way to or from the Coast or the NW corner.. I sure hope you rest in peace old buddy... Snake said it and I'm back out...

Hello Granny !!! Was at a truck show yesterday and thought of you. Lots of old school trucks there. Hope all is well in heaven. Earth is worse off without you here. Doesn't seem like it's been that long, but I guess it has. See you one day!

6 and 4 married to the dashboard 3408 Cat DITA. 3:90 r. Pond to Pond. 359 ExHD. See Ya. 👋🏽

God bless the Southern Shaker. Never met him but talked to him other CB.. LoneStar over and out!

I remember Eddie he was good people and hell of a driver the good time gangs all gone these days I just don't think I could drive these days it use to be fun but to much bull these days

Okay okay all rise for the pledge* of allegiance of the united states of America.

I feel keeping up with others mostly depends on your engine and your Jake's strength. I have the pleasure of running ungoverned trucks and every truck we have varys on speed and power uphill and Jake strength

R.I.P. to the original Bandit...a True legend

I guess “ Southern Shaker” had a jet engine in that KW. Santa Rosa Calif. to Birmingham Ala. is 2033 mile. At 12 hours that 196 mph. Even at 18 hours it’s 112mph avg.

Name of song please?

I started in 78’ The difference I see between myself and new hands today. I knew exactly what I wanted to do when I was 4 years old and in those days there weren’t schools in every state. I worked my way up in heavy wreckers and proved myself before someone offered me a road job.Now it seems to me that most drivers(Not all) got into trucking as a last resort. I used to buy those old hands dinner and just talk about trucking.If I had a problem I didn’t whine to my dispatcher.I talked to all those guys that knew I just wanted to learn and they’d help me figure it out because it was usually my fault anyway if I was honest. I’m retired now but miss it dearly. Stay safe out there drivers.

nastyhabbit here run with shaker in the 90s at gannt got a lot of fun memories of edie

I outran shaker one night across Arizona, but he was and still is the famous southern shaker, the outlaw if all us outlaws!!! Rest in peace my friend, and my brother of the wind.

Run with him several times and glad I was able to call him friend a great man no doubt

He was the man we all looked up too! I chased him once to Hunts Point out of Cali. Almost killed me. Those days unfortunately are gone. That 3408 was screaming the entire time and we never went doing to double digits. God I miss him and those days

My dad is a driver since the early 80's and back In the day there use to be the south side white light fame gang which southern shaker was apart of. My dad use to run with a driver called special k who was good friends with shaker.

My wife's cousin Steve was the original owner they just ran across old photos of him and the truck . While moving her mother her brother also owned a trucking company here in il.
