From Day One - Abilene Motor Express (Richmond, Wytheville, VA)

Boy if she writes half as good as you this ought to be some great reading. I'm all in on this deal.

Getting loaded in Fort Meade Fl with a citrus load going to Henderson Nc for Sunday morning then off to the yard to pick up George and continue his training.

 

is sally off this week i applied monday and cant get her on the phone and for any of you that live in hampton roads like i do i live like 3 minutes from the canon plant in newport news is it a good place to live for getting home more since i have a place so close that i know ya'll do pick ups for

 

i work for sysco in suffolk right now and i see ya'lls trucks there but most the time its a day cab

 

Wow! I'm really confused....... I thought scotterdawg was a girl. (Inside joke) Welcome to TTR and enjoy your first ride with Mark.

 

Yes we do run out of cannon, you would be in Richmond more than you would Hampton. The ideal thing would be to drive your car to the yard park it and go back & forth. If your are in the area with the truck that would be an option to in terms of getting by the house for a 10hr break.

 

cool ive been looking at them for a while i am use to the going and coming back to the terminal thing like i read alot about when i drove for frock bros thats all it was u went out picked up and came back and i liked that.. i told them i wanted to do regional but i would like to get out to the midwest also is that possible or would i have to switch to otr?

 

If you wanna do the regional the out&in the northeast would be the way to go. Send you north then bring u back down. I live in Richmond I'm back every 2days take 10hr break @ house then back on road. Most of the freight come out the Richmond terminal most time outbound dispatch lets u pick and choose which direction u wanna go. Everyone is labeled otr unless coded northeast only. Abilene regional is east of I-35 Dallas,tx

 

Well, time to get back to the grind. Got a 2 stop Lumber Liquidators to Bolingbrook IL and Sun (someplace) WI. Not in the truck, forgot the last stop. Wow! Really enjoyed being off way too much! LOL I hope the weather isn't going to be too terrible up there. Y'all know I am not into cold and snow. Hahaha

Be safe everyone.

 

ScooterD.'s Girl reporting in from her first road trip. Have been having an awesome experience out here on the road. SD is an awesome truck driver and has been teaching me about the challenging and interesting job you all have out here. My hat is off to each and everyone of you Truckers out there and thank you for the job you do. We left NC yesterday and are already way into Oklahoma. I have seen some beautiful (and interesting) sights along the way. Stopping soon so I will check in later. Be safe out there.
