The best way by far to hook up with a trucker is through the CB radio. They all tell me to give the mic a couple of clicks on Channel 19 and don't say anything. If someone clicks back, just tell them to go to a different channel. Get to the new channel and you can talk, but be careful about what you say. Just set up your location and have fun when you meet. I don't have a CB radio, so it is harder for me.

That's funny - I wondered if CB radio was still a thing for truckers.

"Breaker Breaker good buddy - bend me over at exit 43" LOL

Lol.. I have been looking into this for quite some time now. All the postings, which are current, say to use the CB as the best way to hook up. I found a phone app that will supposedly let you use your phone like a CB. Haven't downloaded it yet. Not sure if it would work, since the cell phone doesn't transmit a CB radio signal. It would have to connect to the internet and then a repeater tower would have to broadcast. Who knows where the tower would be located, lol.

Thanks for the info. Sad that it is getting to be almost impossible to hook up with truckers.

Unfortunately most hook ups (bars, bathrooms, etc.) other than the apps are a relic of the past!

So true! All the old school ways of hooking up that worked are no longer feasible.

So many cameras everywhere - younger we never had to worry about someone getting a picture of us going at it - we did not all have a camera on our phone.

Congratulations!

There is only one bar around here I have been to and never seen any action there.
