:shock: My hubby and I have been driving team for several years now, but NEVER have we done a suicide swap. It'll never happen either. If you're that stupid you ought to not even be out on the road. And Orangetxguy: I'm with you on the staying in the seat and waiting til a rest area or something comes up and if my husband's awake I'll ask him. Some people out here.... :roll: :evil:

about a year ago I came up with this idea and it has served me well. All the stuff that i use up front once in awhile I tie a string to. Red for coffee mug, blue for cell phone, yellow for my magazine. then you tie the other end to something up front, air horn cable, rear view mirror that big red button what ever. then if i ever forget it or need it while driving I just grab the corresponding color string and give it a good yank. Zips right into the cab!

safety first!!!!!

you know if I forgot my lunch of something silly and didn't tie it up well then i'll just zip around a grab it. i mean it is only 70" away.
