    "As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly." I've seen a Sinclair Dino fly. With that accident you had, you're entitled to mention aches and pains. The next trip to Nebraska will not be the same. All I can picture is that tornado crossing I-80. Continued prayers for everyone affected. Thank you for the great ride. Please stay safe, and God bless.

      @suechambers5123 They can fly quite well. Domestic ones can't. The quote is from a classic sitcom, WKRP in Cincinnati. It's a funny episode.

    If the fridge is a Norcold, which used to be made here in Sidney, Ohio, I could understand. They closed and are moving, out of the USA. If you can get products in exchange for doing a review, how about a Macco paint job for First Class?

    As a veteran I really appreciate seeing folks, yourself included, taking a few minutes to visit the memorials, giving/showing respect for veterans. Maybe 20 or so years ago I visited the National D-Day Memorial located near Bradford, Virginia. I was visiting family in the area. Quite the trip we enjoyed today, thankee. Take care and be well.

    Try talking to a car hauler about fuel mileage. I found the 2 best ways to get fuel mileage was to stay home or lie. I pulled a short haul dedicated run for 1-1/2 years. Same 53 ft trailers some with skirts and some without. The skirts helped 2-5 tenths of MPG. DON’T LEAVE HOME WITHOUT YOUR SKIRT !!

    Hey Kurt, I’ve never driven truck but I respect the space needed to make turns, to brake, and to change lanes, therefore, if I’m behind a semi who is signaling to get into my lane, I happily will flash my lights letting the drive know to come on over. I’ve blocked a lane of traffic so a driver could make a hard right turn on a busy street, and I try to never make a left hand turn at an intersection with a semi fast approaching. Be courteous, give space, and don’t be the dickhead who cuts in front of semis because they’re impatient.
