    My wife said it was snowing at our house in southern AL too... first time since 1996.

    At least there's a motel across the street if it quits running altogether.

    I kinda doubt it. I think they use road graders and front end loaders... at least that's what they did back in 1993 when it snowed three feet in Atlanta.

    I'm back on the road... I think... I changed the fuel filter (had a big slug of water in it) and it seems to be running better now.

    Maybe I'll get a few more horsepower... it's a Caterpillar filter. :biggrin_25525:

    have 2 years otr experience and in late 2008 i was injured and have been unable to work and on disability since then because of my back.
    No back surgery, Just fractured a few vertebra.
    I got doctors clearence to return to work last month and everything is healed up with no lingering effects and nothing that would stop me from preforming any of the job duties required as a driver.
    I was just woundering how that will effect my chances to get back into trucking and get hired?
    Ive contacted a few companies (werner, swift, prime, cr england, ffe and a few others aswell) and they go by my work record and dont take the injury into account when it comes to why i havent been working or abile to since then.
    Any advise on what i should do?
