USX drivers...how's your day??

OMG with everything that has gone on in the last 2 weeks, I never posted that I got to meet HighwayMan at Tunnel Hill. It was my pleasure to have met that man and sit and shoot the bull with him.

It was nice to meet ya brother. Hopefully they got you driver tech all setup.

 

so someone had it for only 27k and quit

 

OK, I was approved to go to orientation! All I's dotted, T's crossed. Now if I can remember how to drive after being out for so long. Looking forward to getting back into it and hey, they told me I will be able to be a trainer again (after my time with one of their trainers.) No problem though, need to catch up on the new rules and such.

 

Sitting in Keany, MO for a 10hr.... Life is good!

 

This does not surprise me. They bring in around 70 per orientation class and let half go. It makes me wonder if Greyhound gives them a discounted rate since they usually go back via Greyhound.

OMG I thought you had said Kearny, as in NJ bro!!!!!

 

Ummm to be honest, there could have been more then one person that had this truck. I was amazed when I did the first pre trip on it. 1 gallon short on Oil, and all of the tires only had 80 psi in them.

I hit my first day with rain yesterday, needless to say the wiper blades were shot!! The looked ok when I first looked at them when I got the truck, but what a difference when I tried to use them.

 

For sure they must, they also must have gray hound on speed dial on their phone too!!

 

they definately get a discounted rate I looked up my ticket and its around the ballpark of 120$ and when i received my usx issued ticket it said 77$
