Definitions
1
A driver of a long-nose, chrome-everywhere, lights-everywhere tractor — the rolling beauty queens of the interstate. The name comes from the fact that southern poultry-hauling fleets historically ran some of the most decked-out rigs on the road. Used affectionately by some drivers and a touch sarcastically by others ('all chrome, no go').
“Big chicken hauler came past me on I-40 lit up like a Christmas tree.”

Literally, a driver who hauls live chickens in a slatted poultry trailer. Hot, smelly, feathery work — and they really do tend to keep their tractors immaculate to compensate.
“The chicken hauler unloaded 6,000 birds at the Tyson plant before sunrise.”
