Y'all know who I am.
Anywho, I'm not trying to sound like some sappy, Michael Bolt-On song.
But, if it wasn't for my first ridazz ride with "Ghostride the Strip II", a tedious task like driving the rig wouldn't be any fun at all.
I'm serious, I was pretty humdrum about doing this until that Friday the 13th night.
Sort of like an eye-opening, life-indulging experience for me.
We most likely have no official titles in here, but since I'll probably be out and about as long as decide to keep doing this, I'll make myself one of the unofficial city-scouters.
Basically, drive rig to a big-ass city, take pictures, eat food, drink drinks, and first/foremost, keep an eye out for any additional bikes/riders. Spread that gospel so to speak.

So, to put it in more simpler terms, "I Drive To Ride".

Nice rig dude. Peterbilt?

Before I decided on beaing a Feature Mixer I wanted to be a truck driver. I still give mad respect to Semi-drivers on the freeway.

@Richard Collossus
-Wish it was a Pete', that's just a Fr8liner I had before I was switched over to a Volvo.
But, as I said, MR is actually making me want to keep doing this even longer.
So, until those law-enforcement app's get finished, I'm sticking with this for awhile.

@ Bent: So how do the Volvo's run?

And how do they compare to the Benzo's? Does Mercedes make a decent truck?

Haven't really been in a Benz yet.
I know they have some delivery vans, but Freightliner also has some similar looking ones, they might in fact be in some type of partnership.
As far as the Volve Tractor unit goes, this thing is actually designed like a car inside.
Although, the cab-noise is still a problem.
That Diesel engine is loud as hell when on the road.
