I had heard from my meet driver that he heard from a shop guy that a team told him that my barn was getting 10 new Peterbuilts just for line haul use only!! WOW. They are all fully loaded with Bose surround sound and built in Conex CB radios and also a police scanner so we can hear all the bears talk!!

He also told me that they will have heated leather seats with magic fingers vibration on the bottom and back..White letter tires shiny wheels and more lights than you can count!! The best part is that all the line haul guys gets their names put on their trucks in bold fancy lettering with the 10 year plus guys having their names in 24K gold..Thanks FedEx Ill never want to go home now.. Wait this must have just been a dream oh well it was fun to think about..
