American Trucker Terminology and CB Lingo!!

[RAZOR]

I found this nifty website that describes most of the terminology you may hear. It's pretty thorough but don't expect CB Lingo on here.. http://www.truckercountry.com/trucker-resources/trucking-terminology/

This one has some CB lingo if you're into that. http://www.chickenhaulin.com/lingo.htm
Comment with more, but I'm pretty sure we ALL know what a lot lizzard is by now. :)

too bad of the truckers in the real world today don't use the CB's, there would be less pile ups if these super truckers would communicate with each other

its not like it was back in the day, when everyone and their brother were on the CB talking, warning, etc. now, they're tarping a load wearing flip flops with the bluetooth for their phone in their ear.

Well thanks for that killjoys... this was supposed to be fun an informative. Who cares if they don't use CB's much anymore.. there are still a few who still do.. Especially the terminology link that got overlooked that would still be used while talking to fellow "neighbors" and dispatchers regardless of the format. It would help to know a few of those terms an incorporate them into the game.. eh? I'm talking about the first link I shared. Did either of you bother to actuallly look at the links?
