I haul groceries to the prisons out there. Gorgeous area, but a very hard place to make a living, form what I understand. I haul groceries to Tacoma a lot, too. I dig that city!

Hey Oregoon! Welcome from the Peninsula of WA! I'm an Oregonian as well, but work keeps me out of Oregon a lot. I grew up in North Bend/Coos Bay and Hillsboro. Stationed in NB/CB a half dozen years ago- miss it!
I'm on my way back to Jersey in a few months. Hope it's my last tour of duty before retirement.
The months may change, but I am always APRIL

I grew up in Aloha, but have lived in Hillsboro... And I've trucked all over the Oly Penn. Where are you these days?

:welcome: from NY! The 66 F250 I picked up was imported here from Oregon/Washington area. I was amazed at how clean it was underneath :shock:
Look forward to some pics of yours.

One more welcome from Northern Alberta :welcome:
Is that the truck from the movie Duel in your avatar? I remember watching that as a kid and it freaked me right out.
It's a race.. Will hell freeze over or will JC finish his truck first. Stay tuned..

That is the truck from Duel! '60 Peterbilt 281 with a Cummins 262 backed by a Spicer 5-and-3. I cut teeth on a '55 Kenworth with a 220 and a 5-and-4, and 20 years later, I'm still grabbing gears for a living, despite a BA in Communication Studies and a fledgling freelance writing career. I think that movie is entirely to blame...

Speaking of Duel: Best movie ever, worst ending ever! That said, Carey Laughlin remains the best stunt driver of all time.

Of course, I'm a trucker by trade, so I'd have to think that.
