    Wife wanted me home more. OTR wasn't to her liking and she didn't want to ride all the time. Sold my truck in April to member Broncrider and tried the company slave local job thing all summer. That didn't cut it.

    Me quiting LS had nothing to do with them!

    I am getting that a little from mine too. Being out M-F is starting to take a toll. I wish I could get hooked up with a local Container company that allows me to sleep in my own bed 1 or 2 nights during the week. That might keep her happy.

    Brickman.....Glad to hear you are doing well. Kinda been busy myself.....but...as we speak....Mama is driving us to The Rock, GA...She's getting better every day. She'll be ready to take her test in a couple of weeks! Just in time for her birthday!! Keep us posted on the progress. Hope everything works out well for you.

    Mama got to see the T-660 and W-9's with the Studio......he he he....it worked!!!! Don't look like anything short of a Custom sleeper will do any better......so, we'll be getting us a KW when our lease is up!

    You said, that it's not in your name? What's to stop them from getting pissed at you, kicking you out of YOUR truck, and putting someone else in the seat, just because they got a wild hair up their ### and decided that, that was what they wanted to do? Just a thought, I'd be cautious about.

    Do they need a driver out of east TX. This is something I could possibly be interested in. Been wanting to get into autos for a bit now.
