WIDE???? They're 18ft with no shoulders, but then our rigs are alot bigger than yours over there.

My truck has a 244" wheel base, the vehicle combination I pull has an overall length of 102 ft. I've taken it down some pretty narrow & winding roads, but then we don't have the sardine can space that you guys have either!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Kat I don't mind the Teslin bridge, probaby cause I'm always doing the 50 km speed limit through Teslin.
I hate Big Creek and Little Ranch, oh and Mclintock, ugh! Cause I'm always doing 100+ and praying people stay out of my way! lol

Tammy, I enjoyed the interview.

Hopefully Rebel Darlin will see this and take some of your advice for the ladies. Using her agitated rattlesnake personality as an example, it is no wonder that females from the 'outside' are treated poorly. :P

Wow that's great scenery. I run a refuge road but it's rough and I mainly watch for potholes.

The video was great! And I agree, attitude is everything. I've never had a problem with my co-workers or customers. It's all about being a professional.

Don't pay any attention to Belpre, he's just spittin' in the wind again. :wink:

Tammy.......What type of places do you take your breaks at? They are used to the run-of-the-mill Pilots/T/A/Petro etc, down here. The variety (or lack thereof) would be interesting, I think? Are they mostly Mom-Pop operations? Or any at all?

We already know who would be at Jake's Corner. 8)
