Coast to Coast
Butch stepped back after polishing the chrome to admire his work. It was almost a shame to take such a thing of beauty out on the road. But then again that was how you made money with a truck. Under that boxy hood lay a big 500 horsepower Cummins engine that purred like a kitten, even when pulling the heaviest load. The cab of the Peterbuilt was framed by large dual stacks, dual fuel filters, and trimmed with enough lights that it was lit up like a Christmas tree at night. However the truck didn't need as much power as it had because Butch had extended the tractors frame for a large custom condo sleeper that limited the weight of any trailer he could pull.
Butch put away his polish and rags and headed into the Sapp Brothers Truckstop. He wanted to get something to eat before heading into San Antonio. And he still had a couple of hours before his delivery appointment.
"I was wondering if you could help me out." Butch dispatcher Bill asked over the phone.
"Sure, what's up?"
"Mert's sick and she was going to be taking out a new trainee in San Antonio." Bill explained "And we were wondering if you would be interested in taking on a trainee.."
"I rekon I don't know.." Butch hesitated "I'm not sure if I want to train.. What's his name.."
Bill corrected "Her name is..."

Butch - A truck driver from Amarillo Texas. He's in his mid-twenties but he's done well as a truck driver and he has his own "ranch" with horses and cattle but his hands watch things over while he's off "driving truck". He is tall slim with broad shouldered. He wears a cowboy hat and tends to be the strong silent sort. He's always been a little shy around the ladies and has never married.
Trainee (open) - She's the first trainee he's ever had. She young, just over 21?, adventurous, and independent.
