• “Seat Cover” – an attractive female passenger in a vehicle.
  • “Shaking the Trees” – Refers to the person in the lead in a convoy, watching out for troopers up ahead.
  • “Steak on the Grill” – to hit a cow.
  • “Suds and Mud” – Beer and coffee (with cream/milk in it), served at some truck stops and restaurants.
  • “Suicide Jockey” – A trucker hauling explosives.

Just a small sample of the brilliant list of CB lingo on Wikipedia. I wish these were more widely known, they’d be great for conversational allusions.

E.G. “Did you see Eric leaving work with that seat cover the other day?”
