8) EAR PLUGS....ya Hoser...eh?! :lol:

My Reefer is a whisper quiet...but some of those older units are LOUD.
When either that or just a yahoo with straight pipes parks next to me...I use ear plugs and I'm sane again. :? (relatively sane for a Trucker) :roll:

What I hate is the dickweed with the 25 cent air leak. Lazy bastid. :evil:



..... :? I gotta get me up your way....It's getting too crowded down here....and one of these days
....I'm gonna loose it. :evil:

I had a reefer running on continuous parked in the back pretty much by myself. Went to bed, but woke to the thunderous sound of silence when some nerd came over and switched off the unit. There was nobody parked within 3 spots either side of me when I parked. When I got rudely woken there were no open spots around me.

Turned it back on, stayed up for a bit to see if it would happen again. Sure did. The DA and I had some words.

Why is it reefer haulers can come into a truck stop that is near empty except for one flat bed way out by itself and that is where they feel they ought to park????
Never do you see a reefer park next to another one,it's always next to some poor soul that does not have his motor racing and wants to leave his windows open on a nice day to get some shut eye and here comes bottom dollar driver that has to go out of his way to park right next to him.
The worst thing that could happen is have reefer with a rigmaster park right next to you on a nice day.Or if not a rigmaster a company driver that for some unknown reason has to set his truck idle as high as he can then go into the truck stop to do everything but shower.
A lot of reefer haulers remind me of smokers,they are completly ignorant of thier ignorance.

As far as I'm concerned getting stuck next to a reefer is simply part of trucking. It's just the way it is. If someone doesn't like it oh well. There's many other things to deal with on a daily basis. If you have to park next to a reefer just nose it in so the reefer drivers can watch you spend 30 minutes the next morning trying to back out of a spot after trucks have filled up the lot overnight :lol:

HEY!!! That was NOT a nerd. I am a nerd. That guy was an asshole. He's lucky he didn't get killed. You NEVER screw with another driver's truck if you don't want to wind up dead.
