(This is not -my- truck. Truck belongs to Michele Russell out of FoN GA.)
My truck does not look this awesome, due to the fact that I have -no- money, but of course you get the point. This is what we do, the same thing as the guys. I really don't know how to explain it to someone who doesn't know. We build, drag, and show. I've met very few mini trucker girls, and I know why...
I had never been at the receiving end of "girlfriend/wife" attitude on the car scene before, ever. I've never been a giving of the attitude before either. Saturday morning, sick to my stomach and making a pit stop at a local truck stop/gas station before starting my route. I notice there are some trucks at the pumps, so I walk over and I'm checking them out. Cool, right? Because I keep hearing about this "Mini trucker family atmosphere," right? Well it's not cool to the club chapter president's girlfriend (Of 2 months, I later found out Saturday afternoon), who proceeds to say loudly and rudely "What's -she- looking at?" Obviously the mini trucks here, and the lower full size. But, Cortnye's no fool, as I'm looking around I notice club stickers on all of the trucks. Granted, I love the look of this clubs' stickers. Girlfriends and wives in my opinion have no right to have attitude to someone checking out their boyfriend's trucks/cars, if she's -really- that good...he won't leave her. So I go on about my business, then get on with work, the morning goes by and we get to the car show and get set up.... As a huge cosmic joke, trucks start parking around us...what do I see???? -That- clubs' logo. Well played, Universe. Boyfriend starts talking to the NC chapter VP of that club, once he shows up. Later on in the afternoon, the VP has done some detective work, and tells Boyfriend that the girl had also called me a Lot Lizard (A truck stop hooker), which they seem to be worried that will piss me off. Honestly, I find it hilarious that me, who was wearing sweatpants and a big hoodie, with my nappy wavy hair had intimidated her so much. Anywho, a few members of the club apologize to Boyfriend and I about the incident, none of them knew that I found it more gratifying that she looked like a dumb ass in front of all those people. For multiple reasons:
1. Insulting another minitrucker.
2. Insulting another minitrucker's girlfriend.
3. Insulting another club's member.
4. Insulting another club's president's girlfriend.
5. Insulting another club's vice president.
Good job, sweetheart.
Girlfriends and wives like YOU are the reason its so hard for girls like ME to get into the scene!
I wish there were more mini trucker girls! Especially in my area!!! <3
I gotta show you a picture of our truck after we get the new rims and Bobby gets the wing done for the back.
