I'm currently driving one of these and I vape all day in the cab. It would be a long day without my vape!

What's it like getting back in your personal truck to go home after driving that all day? lol

It's a little wierd especially being my work car is a VW Jetta. :) One of the oddest things is the feeling of speed. The truck has a max speed of 38 and let me tell you, it feels like you are flying, especially when loaded. But then I get in my car and drive 70 on the way home and it feels slow.

Retired/Disabled geek. Former network admin, PC repair and WAN consultant. In the pre PC era I drove cab, baked French Pasteries and moved from city to city based on the size of their library. Self educated.

Smoked for 47 years and was a nicotine addict since the age of 5 when I first started working the harvest of the family tobacco fields. Started smoking at ten.

Currently a chain vaper who fixes PC's in my garage for anyone who cannot afford to pay a shop. I also rebuild donated laptops and redistribute them to people transitioning from homelessness.

I live in a city where vaping anywhere but home or in designated smoking areas is illegal but the substance we are not allowed to mention in this forum, will become legal this thursday.

I have worked with developmentally disabled adults for 22years, in a sheltered workshop. When I started, back in the early 90's, we were allowed to smoke in the facility prior to operating hours. Many of our folks came from institutions and chain smoked. When we eliminated smoking in the building, I thought there would be riots. Over time, it became natural to go to the designated smoking areas. I always missed smoking in my office. Now with vaping I have returned to glory days of old. I can work and vape without the nasty artifacts, ashes, smell, discoloration. I still would never vape around the people we serve. I can simply close the office door and vape as needed. I also can vape when I take people out for their smoke breaks. I think it would be healthier to introduce some of our folks to vaping but the big difference is that a cigarette is a "timed" event, when the cigarette is out, it time to go back to work. I fear if I started them vaping now I would never get any work done. They might be developmentally disabled but I bet it wouldn't take long to figure out a 6ml tank means "all day vape".

I'm a published writer of short stories and novellas, as well as a produced screenwriter. I've been in the former profession since 1999, and the latter since 2008. My most recent produced film is Lighthouse Lane, a psychological thriller produced by Brekan Brothers, which has screened in L.A., will be screening tomorrow in NYC and which has been/is currently making the independent film festival rounds.
