Location: Missouri | I'm kind of joining the conversation late here..,but I have a confession. I'm not too great at backing up my rig, and when I go to races, I ALWAYS look for a 'pull thru' spot! 
However, I also didn't get the chance to even pull a truck and trailer til I was 20. I'm 24. In high school my stepdad would drive me to like one race a month (I paid for the fuel),his truck was brand new at the time and he babied it. I was NOT allowed to drive. When I was 20 my husband and I bought our first truck, and I finally learned to pull a rig. I can back just fine in familiar places but otherwise I still suck at it. Needless to say I look forward to the day we can afford to upgrade to a gooseneck!

I think your post makes a good point. If you analyze her rant, she says she is not talking about people who have earned it. So, even if you do some of the things she talks about, she says she's not talking about you IF you have "earned it". Problem is, her rant leaves you feeling like she is talking about you if you have a nice rig or a helpful boyfriend or a nice hat or you drive through a spot instead of backing in or whatever else she goes on about. So, when you have earned nice things or worked your way up to where you can afford a nice horse, people will look down on you because posts such as that get a lot of attention. After all, nobody can tell how you got where you are. |

| Three 4 Luck - 2015-04-03 8:45 AM Chandler's Mom - 2015-04-02 10:59 PM farmer's tan - 2015-04-02 9:25 PM I am actually acquainted with this girl. Yes, that is her real accent-she's from Arkansas originally. She is exceptionally intelligent-college graduate (double major) with plans to attend medical school. She has a heart of gold and yes, she has a girlfriend. Yes, she cusses a lot but she gets her point across! What comedians don't take small little idiosyncrasies of daily life and blow them up into something funny. If you don't like it, don't listen. The conversation regarding those who "have" and those who "have not" I agree that if you were born with money and your daddy buys you everything-don't act like you're the "same" as everyone else. Personally, I DO have a whole lot more respect for those who show up in a rusted up old trailer and truck than those who have the sparkly new stuff. Another point--it's one thing to have your parent's buy you everything. What about the ones who are homewreckers who go after married men with money and have them buy the horse, the trailer, the pick up etc etc. I suppose that's ok too? They may have eventually made it on their own, with the horse they could afford. Not saying anything against her, but being from Arkansas isn't the cause of that accent.
Naw that sh*t sounds put on! I have an accent(TX) too but some of those nuances sound fake to me. And again, i don't find her funny. The cussing doesn't bother me but the humor sux. |

Exactly!!! My husband used to go and help me all the time, because for the longest time I felt like such a fish out of water driving a truck and trailer, I liked having him around for those times that there were no more pull thru spots, etc.
But I also don't have a brand new truck and I pull a 99 steel bumper pull...so I guess that makes it ok? ;) lol! |

The original post asked what our opinions were. Also, if you put yourself out there than you better expect to be blasted. ---You read others expect to get read! |

If she's "outspoken and doesn't care what people think about her" then this thread won't bother her at all. She'll never give it a second thought.

One should not be surprised when you are out in the field spreading “sh*t”, that a little gets "blown back" on ya……..

| Who has the time or energy to be worries or focused on all these people she is talking about. I find it hard just to focus in what I'm doing let alone who drove what of wore what or rode what horse and so on and so on |

Location: hot, humid and dry...Gulf coast East of Houston.. | I have seen her videos, and I take them with a grain of salt, like most threads on here.. Just a form of entertainment. I see a lot of people on here bashing her for her views on someone pulling up in a rig they didnt earn, or buy themself, on a horse the same way that cant ride it. Whats funny to me is that this topic has been beat to death on here time and time again about just what she is saying, but I guess its ok to make fun of and gripe about it if its done here behind a screen name, or even a real name, just not on someones own fb page? Hypocritical much? |
