Every day I think about how cool my job is. When people ask what I do I tell them I play truck for a living.

But it's not just the regular job that makes it all worth it. It's the road trips and camaraderie. I've recently been invited on three events for our sister magazine Diesel Power. I have 'em convinced they pretty much need me to have a good time. Or maybe cause I'm the idiot that will do things like drink a pint of mustard on a bet. The trips included 24 Hours at a Truck Stop, Diesel Power Challenge, and most recently, the Area 51 road trip where we hunted down secret military bases, aliens, space junk, and women with three teeth in their head. You can read more about the older events at www.dieselpowermag.com. The Area 51 trip should be on newsstands soon.
