Previously on Over the Road: Episode 5 -- Back home
The Channel One-Nine Special set of mini-episodes in the Over the Road podcast series is back this week with something a little different. We’re off the phone lines and back out into the world with an in-sleeper tour conducted at the 2019 Mid-America Trucking Show of owner-operators Daniel and Phyllis Snow’s 1996 Freightliner Classic XL, “The Goose.” We’re answering questions about trucking from listeners inside and outside the business along the way.
Today’s question: How do truckers customize their interiors? This run through the Snows’ big bunk, repurposed and custom-designed after the shell was pulled from a salvage yard, gives a clear idea of why, too. Take a listen:
Daniel and Phyllis Snow (aka Doc and Tinkerbell) have been on the truck together for the last decade. They run independent, pulling a dry van whose front is repurposed as storage space for tools and other supplies. The couple’s based in Harrison, Ark.
“The Goose” in all its glory. | Below find a video run through some of its features on the occasion of the 2018 Guilty by Association Truck Show in Joplin, Mo., at 4 State Trucks.Next up on Over the Road: Episode 6 -- Our Punjabi brothers
