Even more troubling is the load puts you back at the same location which indicates a probability that it...

    Is It Really True That Truckers Can't Agree? Let's Try.

    Uncle Sam's science curriculum

    Yep....the new science is if you exhale carbon monoxide, then one must be taxed. Unless of course you are a democrat or are here illegally.

    Yellow Pensky Trucks
