Seeing our Country from a truck!

I wanted to start a thread about why some of us got into trucking. To see the country! And others to make some money.
I encourage you to go for walks, hikes, bike rides, roller blading, swim, fish, while out driving your truck around this beautiful country we live in. Get out of the truck and trick stops.
Feel free to post picks, with the location, on here so we can see what we are missing by just doing the same old thing all the time.

Hi Mike. I had a home every night union job and only worked 4 days a week and home every night. Lot of drivers would love to have that job. I got tired of it and the union is not what it use to be. If had responsibilities at home still I wouldn't be out here. If your single and don't have all those obligations I would say go for it. Food service driving jobs are plentiful.
I paid off all my credit cards and bought all that I might need for the road before I put a application in. And checked out company's on here for a little while.

I think lots of people never do things they want to do because fear holds them back and most never follow through. Some times you just have to leap and put yourself out there.
Good luck in no matter what you do. Some people would like to have your job believe it out not. Doing service delivery is a tough driving job. But pays descent.

 

Always a kill joy...... I realize all that. I didn't tell anyone not to do their job. Sorry if you don't have time to get out of your truck or run hard enough to take a restart. I didn't post this to offend you or anyone out here. My Apologies if it does. That's not my intent.

I'm from Colorado and drove Montana and the Rockies every week. And it's just as beautiful. Just slower going. I can sling chains on pretty quick. Montana sucks cause of the winds, plus the snow with it. Snow shoes and ski poles!
