Driving a Big Rig

Some of you may not know, but Pete, my man, is a Class 1 Instructor and a former long haul trucker. He was doing some side work this week and I went on a couple of runs with him. He was on a dirt road on private land and he had me get in the driver's seat on this flat, straight part. Not exactly what I thought - plus, kinda illegal, but there wasn't anyone else around. He changed the gears, etc and I only drove maybe 50m, but still. I have never done that before - and, don't really need to do it more. It was cool to drive around up really high though. Thanks for the lesson and I did something I never thought I'd do.
