    Hello - Thank you for dropping by. I have been driving for 20 + years & have done alot of things in the trucking business. I am looking to make connections with my fellow drivers & find out what is going on where they are at or doing. Currently, I am stuck in the office & only get to drive once in awhile.

    Thank you for your welcomes everyone. Oldnewbiegonnabe: I started out just like you or so it sounds. Trucking was all I wanted to do and I would practice driving with the recliner extended as if the extended portion was the dash. lol Well, after going to driving school and knocking on every door in a 150 mile radius someone finally hired me. The economy was good then, so now it might take a 500 mile radius. Well, it just took off from there.

    Have done dispatching, fleet management, brokerage, training, & etc.... not too much turning wrenches though.
