Big Joe & Phantom 309

"So we rode and talked the better part of the night and I told my stories and Joe told his, and I smoked up all his Viceroys as we rolled along.
He pushed her ahead with 10 forward gears, man that dashboard was lit like the old Madam La Rue pinball, a serious semi truck.
Until almost mysteriously, well it was the lights of a truck stop that rolled into sight ...."
