@Xperiments101 I did work for MDS at the time of this video

my truck is set at 65, but I cruise at 64. That way if I run up on a truck doing 1/2 mile an hour faster, I throttle up to pass 'em at 65. And these days you've gotta respect a slow approaching truck behind you. If they go for the pass, let off the throttle for a few and let 'em get around you.

@tigbomtom yes that is a good idea on one hand, but one of the trucks that you passed awhile back will be in the unit train and come back for a pass at a half mile an hour then you're right back where ya started

i had a trucker i was trying to pass that kept on speeding up on me everytime i was almost done and w/o getting pissed and yelling at him on cb i just got on the cb and told him his fuel cap was off and splashing fuel and he pulled over to fix it and solved my problem. It wouldn't be so stressful if other truckers would slow up a little when you're passing them instead of being ass holes. i do it for them when they take awhile to pass me. Keep up the cool vids and stay safe.

I lay back on my stool in god's country, life is great. No stress required, just back out and let the knuckle heads keep on a steppin'.

@truckertwotimes i wish i could get out of it but i am a tanker driver hauling Gas and Diesel and it pays really good but it's so stressful with these idiots out here. I wouldn't know what to do as another career option. Especially that pays this good!

[truckertwotimes]

@Dieseldemen or in on case I experienced I could run faster on the flat behind a slower truck and after taking all I could of that steeped out to pass and here comes a little hill, so we end up drag racing, a van driver behind me in the hammer lane swung back into the right lane and passed my roadblock then swerved in front of me so hard he almost ran into the median, he was really mad I guess, anyhow I don't do trucking anymore, these folk can haul their own groceries and beer

@packrat541 Man, I don't miss those problems, overpopulation is causing major break downs of the human mind kind

[packrat541]

I was driving a truck with a little 300 HP cat in it on a hill and there are signs all over saying left lane closed ahead (constrution) so i am in the right lane with my foot to the floor and cars behind me and this truck tries to pass me and ends up running over a bunch of safety cones and stopping in the left lane. So this truck catches up to me later and gives me the bird !!!
