In reply to the discussion: Word is that truckers got hit with higher taxes for 2018 [View all]A HERETIC I AM
(24,367 posts)6. First, "Good Buddy" is a pejorative.
Because of that stupid fucking movie Convoy, truck drivers have considered that term to be a derogatory term meaning homosexual for 40 years.
Second, CB ( Citizens Band) and Ham are two completely different types of two way radios.
Third, CB traffic is way down from where it used to be primarily because it isnt needed
And yes, trucks still have CD players but they also have USB ports on the radios so you can play your iPod or phone.
