Freewheelingfrank is a retired trucker... maybe he'll stop by with some tales of life on the road.

I gotta say, don't even THINK about carrying the Shrek with you. DOT can come in and do whatever they want at a weigh station. While you have a CDL, they OWN you. You get caught playing mule, you're fucked. If that's why you want to be a trucker, so you can take weed all over the place, consider a vehicle that ISN'T required to stop for weigh-ins and logbook checks, and a license that doesn't have a zero-tolerance clause attached.
