I would say the vast majority of truckers dont like RV's of any type, they think that they are the only people that know how to drive and that RV'ers are a pain. Listen to the CB especially at night or when one slows them down. Once and a while ILL get a trucker that clears me back in but not often.
Unfortunately hanko, I'm sorry to say that I have gotten the same impression. Many times the commentary I hear on the CB is ridiculous. According to some truckers, you would think that the Interstate Highway System should be intended solely for their use, and any use by any vehicle aside from tractor trailers should be prohibited! (Can you imagine what their tolls would be without the rest of us kicking-in?) Nonetheless, I still continue to extend the necessary courtesy's to all truckers and commercial drivers, fully realizing that it's unlikely that I'll receive it in return. I use the ICC button on my control panel although I have used the hazard flashers on occasion for "thanks".
