New guy here. A little behind my username. We had Volvos where I worked and I got into the industry on 9-29-2006. I also like it because its never a taken username. I stumbled across this site looking for a truckers forum as I also inhabit the Ford forums. Ive been stalking around for a while and I enjoy reading what goes on around the country.
I am an on road diesel mechanic and working on getting myself into Caterpillar soon to add off road to my resume' as well. I love what I do. I have a CDL A and can drive but I havent been in the seat yet. Id like to do it for a couple of years just to get it out of my system. The difficult part is now that im rooted I dont have the will to be gone most of the time. We'll see what happens.
Anyhow. I love trucks and this country would be nowhere without the truckers moving the freight. I am proud to be in this industry and I thank all you drivers who both help us all and keep me employed..![]()
If you're not careful, it might just get INTO your system... personally, I have Diesel #2 coursing through my veins, and I didn't have a clue about trucking 15 years ago.
