we all know what YOU drive, but what drives YOU?

My Boxer, My goals to retire in south america. Only car, Cell phone, Boxer and Insurance. Still cant hit my goal yet.

 

ok been married 10 years have two boys and a girl(almost) three more weeks lol, have a paid for home that we bought 8 years ago(bought new) and we are getting a new one build in a two acre plot, I am over the road but run moday to friday 90% of the time . home time is in san antonio

 

What drives me? A desire to not lose my house & property. This economy sucks and OTR truck driving is the only thing I could find 3 years ago that provided me with any chance of recovering after the collapse of the housing market that I was tied to as a builder.

I do not like this job, I tolerate and endure it for the sake of my wife. Being away from home so much is for the birds. I like many in management that I've gotten to know, but they go home every night and weekend, without me and you other drivers out here sacrificing, they wouldn't have a job.

I should also add that I've liked having students on my truck teaching them the ropes.

Believe me, if there was a local position near my residence that would pay near what I make now, I take it in a heartbeat. There isn't though...

So, I wait until the economy turns and something else opens up for me in my area of expertise.

 

I don't have much driving me. I have no kids, no car payment, cheap rent, and have only a little debt in student loans. I mainly work this job because it affords me good beer and xbox games when I go home. And the ability to afford to invest some money for retirement.

 

Butterbeans.......

 

Magic beans are better. They grow these huge beanstalks that you can climb, and when you get to the top you get to hang with this giant fellow.

 

Naaa I hung out with him in my younger years.

Skin flint never had anything for the munchies.

I'm sticking to butter beans
