“Are You A Truck Driver?”
Hello everyone, As I was talking with some of my non trucking friends, some of them thought that I was talking in an foreign language. They asked me, “what in heavens name was I talking about?” Sitting back and reflecting on the conversation, I noticed that most of us drivers do speak a different language. So in the spirit of Jeff Foxworthy, I thought of a few words or phrase’s that might be funny and amusing at the same time!
#1. If you fuel up instead of gas up…….you might be a truck driver!
#2. If you call the dotted line in the middle of the road a zipper….. you might be a truck driver!
#3. If you call a weight station a chicken coop…… you might be a truck driver!
#4. If you call a Highway Patrolmen a bear….. you might be a truck driver!
#5. If you refer to a lady of the night as a lot lizard….. you might be a truck driver!
#6. If you refer to a mile marker as a yard stick….. you might be a truck driver!
#7. If a handle is a nick name….. you might be a truck driver!
#8. If a highway patrolmen in a white auto is a Polar Bear…. you might be a truck driver!
#9. If a blown tire on the road is referred to as a Gator….. you might be a truck driver!
#10. If you refer to an automobile as a 4 wheeler….. you might be a truck driver!
And the list goes on and on. I’m sure you have a few that I did not mention. I would love to hear your phrases and post them along with the one’s here. I hope you have fun with this very short list. Until the next truck stop!
Kurt and Spencer

Also love it! If you don’t like fat girls because of the extra weight on your steers, you might be a trucker. If you have seen every city in America so much that you start avoiding them, you might be a truck driver. If you refer to rest stops as pickle parks and call your wife a jump seat warmer, you might be a truck driver. I will let others have some.
