Every Friday, our beloved RFDTV runs this thing with old trains and railroad trips. While fine I guess, the episodes are at minimum two years old.
But hey RFDTV , I have an idea, how about we do a show about old and new OTR trucks, and the way it was in trucking's yesteryear? Lets show off those chrome girls that move this nation, lets show off the not so polished but able rigs, go inside the newer travel plazas , but also take a look at those old mom and pop truck stops, that served truckers first everyone else came second, and truckers got their coffee free.
Lets have a show that remembers those pioneering radio shows that kept many truckers awake overnight, as well as hauling bulls over mountain deserts and mountain ranges in deep snow. As well as look at new radio networks both standard radio and satellite that is in that cabs radio.
Radio shows that talked trucks, smokey bear hideouts, speed traps, weather and roads, and even talked smack of seat covers(women), NASCAR, where to get a free brew , where to stay away from. Much of which was pioneered in the mid 70’s to mid 80’s here on Dixie Diesel/HazzardAyre Radio and that tradition continues.
But lets go to the Overdrive Pride & Polish, and other trucking shows.
Oh and lets not forget those trucker TV shows and films of the 70’s, from Breaker Breaker, White Line Fever, to Smokey & The Bandit and my favorite, Convoy. TV shows as Movin On, BJ & The Bear, and a few not so remembered Highway Honey’s.
Of course truckers and toewing news, the latest in regulatory news, and just remembering when driving a truck was a kids dream, not a dreaded oh well nothing else job.
Let’s look back on the truckers organizations, The RoadMaster Association that became, the Independent Truckers Association, as well as those now modernized trucker magazines like; Overdrive, or Owner/Operator Magazine. Of course lets spotlight those still around, Like LandLine, published by the Owner/Operators Independent Trucker Association, or Dixie Diesel Tymez published by us here at the United , American, Independent Truckers Association that also is co parent of Dixie Diesel Radio.
And lets make this TV series new, up to date, and keep it current.
FamilyNet and RFDTV is good but ya’ll have a long way to go, but I’m open to doing this if ya’ll at RFDTV would just talk, instead of ignoring, but don’t despair ya’ll, Southern Steele TV will deliver just that, that’s one of the reasons we are searching for in studio radio eye candy, so some of these diesel dazzling sweethearts can dazzle you on Dixie Diesel TV.
That’s my idea.
L8R Haulers,
