    Default JimmyPete

    Hi There!

    Reading the Dark half by Stephen King I couldn't figure out what a JimmyPete is, maybe it's kind of a truck, but of course you have the last word.

    Context: And you had to add in the probability that she was snoring like a JimmyPete doing seventy on the turnpike.

    Great to know you are always ready to help, I appreciate it very much indeed!

    This is not anything I am familiar with. Your assumption is the same I would make. A truck. A big truck.

    Peterbilt makes big trucks. That may be the "Pete" part, but I have no clue on the "Jimmy" part.
