I agree if you want to own a truck, go to a bank and borrow the money and buy a truck... That is the best way.

Should be heading home tomorrow. I'm at that point that I can go so far then shut down till the next day after I get more hours. I've hauled two hazmat loads, both from the same place and it really irritates me that they don't pay anything extra for hazmat. It was flammable liquid in the large totes, so not only was it a hazmat load it was like hauling a tanker load as well. All that and I get paid the same as a load of paper towels. Believe me it took a lot more care and skill than an ordinary dry load.

I agree Preacher I think they should through a couple more cents per mile your way when you pull hazmat. There are some companies that pay you a penny a mile more if you just have the endorsement. They should do something. Not to mention an across the board raise is about due to. It has been a long time since a pay raise.
