    well thought i would update and let everyone know i am still looking for a new company to drive for still no luck i guess i am just too picky. all i want is 1. good rate per mile. 2. home every weekend. 3. dry van. 4. be able to bring truck home for hometime. 5. good health insurance that doesnt cost a small fortune. 6. able to run a southern regional because i hate running the northeast 7.where i can at least be able to make enough money to pay my bills and feed my family. i guess this is going to be a pipe dream to find all of theses things i want:biggrin_25512:

    Ah, Mr. Mule, dude. Listen, what you don't understand is when you become a trucker, you are married to the truck. You wake up with your new sweetheart every day and drive her all day long and, of course, sleep with her everynight. You tend to her every ache immediately to keep her from stranding you high and dry. Your home is just a memory that you may see occasionally. Your "Ex" is now just a lady you visit with every so often. You have now committed your heart/soul to this 18000 lb beast. :smt008:smt049

    this may be true for some but not for all. i have been driving sinse 1992 and yes i have did my fair share of being gone long periods of time but. i wont stay gone longer than a week anymore.life is too short to not enjoy your family when you can.thats why i wont stay out no 2 to 4 weeks at a time. there is pleanty of jobs where you can get home on weekends i am sure i just havnt found the right one for me as of yet. so till i do i guess i will stay doing what i am doing now home 2 to 5 hours a day for .31 a mile
