    Yeah, not my thing. As far as I can tell, he hasn't been a truck driver in quite some time.

    True, but the OP has zero experience, and doesn't have a CDL

    I’ll go to a construction company and drive a dump truck before I’ll turn a key for the likes of Werner or C.R. England.

    Yes, but if hes OTR hes going to need a heavy coat.

    I never wear my carhartt winter Xtreme coat in TX. Id get way too hot. But when I leave the terminal in 1 or 2 days all of the sudden its 0 degrees outside and high wind. 0 degrees and no wind is no problem. But if wind is blowing its painfully cold.
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    Just gotta drive faster and hit the border.
    Hour left on the clock in Toledo. Better chop chop and cut across by the courthouse :)

    Mmmmm juicy Canada miles.

    I remember pawning off loads going to Rochester heights in Taylor. Some guy would get like 15 miles the next day that didn't have a passport and I'd be on my way to Montreal lol.
