"Trucker clock.....who wants it!?!?!?"
1967 International. Not a 18 + wheeler but its not a pickup.
Do these count?
I resigned back in Feburary, but driving them was my favorite part.
I alternate between an 08 Sterling single axle dump truck on normal days and a 2013 Mack quad axle dump truck on rare occasion. I'm the only driver we got who likes the single axles because they have no air ride cab. Its a bumpy ride but its fun off road. All the OTR guys might be good on the road, but lets take those rigs off road and see if any of you can drive with me.

This is what I have now.
A White Scheider truck. Trying to pass for Swift?
Everything passes a Swift. (Except a Schnieder).

That's about right! In my reckoning, Swift, Schneider, Werner, JB Hunt, TMC, England and Maverick all qualify as stationary road hazards.
Mine will run 93mph although I stick withing a couple of miles an hour of the speed limit. As I see it, the purpose is to make money and tickets tend to defeat that purpose.
That old FLD I had was set to top out at 85, which was nice as I ran out west a lot. The Mack's Quickway (my present employer) are mostly set to 62 for the day cabs. I run a dedicated lane between Bloomington, In/Great Lakes, IL/Ft McCoy, WI, so I drive 65 MPH sleepers, I can at least do the speed limit and stay clear of the really slow ones. I wish they weren't automatics, though. I miss my 13 speed Eaton/Fuller gearbox.
