Another thing to point out is the newer car is “only” a 2009 model. We’ve had another 17 years since then to make them even safer still.
It’d be interesting to see how much cars have improved since then.

Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy for the PS2 had a roughly 1.5’ x 2’ fold out poster that had a map of the playable world with small bits of lore. It even had a short message from your uncle telling you good luck on your journey. The other side had an image of Jak & Daxter on the A-grav zoomer. This was way back in 2001.
I remember as a kid pulling it out and reading it so many times that the corner folds started to wear out.
Similarly, Ratchet & Clank also had a poster with all the weapons & gadgets you’d use with small bits of info for each item. The reverse side also had R&C, however I can’t remember if Ratchet was just holding the Devastator or if they were on a grind rail.
I miss getting those with the games. It made them so much more special and unique.
Both jobs were only part time, so it wasn’t every day, but it was still around 3 times a week, so recovering from it was difficult. It was dependent on when the trucks arrived.
About a decade ago I worked a few weeks at ShopKo. Their hours were terrible; they’d make you work 5-9pm to unload the trucks, then make you work 5am-1:30pm the following morning to restock the shelves.
You get exactly 8 hours between shifts making it physically impossible to get 8 hours of sleep. And since the hours were spread so wide throughout the day it was impossible to have a regular sleep schedule. It’s legal for companies to do this to their workers in the US.
I was also only paid around $8.50/hr, but that’s beside the point.
In a similar vein, my next job was at another retail store. One time I requested a weekend off to help a friend move, but they denied it and instead made me work 7 days in a row, Wednesday through Tuesday. They got away with it because the company’s shift tracking app ends the work week on Saturday, so it didn’t realize I worked a week straight.
I was paid around $10.50/hr on average there.
A semi is rated to tow tens of thousands of pounds, so this is absolutely nothing for one to do. And sometimes you need to transport multiple semi’s to a destination but don’t need multiple drivers to do it. This is probably the easiest/cheapest way to do it.
