Ol man had a CB in his pickup and he would let me talk to the truckers. He always told me “stay outta them trucks! You stay in school!” I tried that but I was quickly bored. I “cheated” my way into a CDL and a truck driving job. It was cool as hell for a few years and it was great $$ at the time but then I was stuck in it. Couple years ago I retired after 30+ yrs and I’m done! I don’t care if I never climb up in a truck again. Btw- seeing this clip also brought back memories from the early 70s.

This is why I STILL have CB's in my trucks. Them new-fangled 'cellular phones' may not catch on, after all. I prefer the tried & TRUE technology! :-D

Oh God I remember Hee Haw it seemed to be one of three tv shows that were on Saturday nights when I was a kid. The others being Match Game PM and The Lawrence Welk Show.

Miss those days. I bought my first CB from Western Auto and used it as a Bay Station. Sing brings back memories.

Like they say, truckers keep food on our table, god bless America and truckers

I started driving professionally back in 2003. I got to talk to some of the older drivers and hear them on the CB. It was more of a brotherhood back then. It’s no longer that way.
