Here is a pic of something that Slim never sees. I just had to rub it in one more time driver.
My truck isn't govern as bad as a Walmart truck.

Looking for a pic of my new truck. Mine is black now days.

2020 Kenworth truck and a 2020 Heil Trailer. Yep, Im still spoiled. But this one doesnt have all the stupid warning buzzers and wont break on its own!

Thanks for bringing up this old thread Slim.

Nope, I don’t see anything over 65mph on my speedo meter. I hit the cruise control and let it ride and listen to audiobooks or talk radio podcasts.

Yep, I’m that old.

In fact he once had to deny a service station as much propane as they wanted as he needed to be sure that there was enough to get him back to the company's yard which was about 70-80 miles away. That was during the 4th of July week and the station ran out of propane and the owner of the station wasn't happy

Not a Lorry but I used to have a motorhome that used petrol as default but had a switch that let me run on propane if I ever needed to.

I know what y'all mean. I hauled liquid nitrogen while working on farms. Tri axle trailer behind a pick-up, 1500 gallon tank, no baffles. Sitting at traffic lights, was always fun, as it kept trying to shove you thru the intersection.
