    Trust me. I will fill in as I progress. I can tell you one thing. I have several friends and acquaintances that have switched from Knight to Marten. Every last one of them is happy with their pay, miles, loads, trucks and definitely the APUs are a nice bonus.

    I'll definitely spend a while deciding how I feel about things. I think I'll put a year in and decide then if I would like to stay with Marten or find work that keeps me in or near Pittsburgh.

    I don't know squat about Central. BUT. I did meet a nice driver for Central Refrigerated. He was in a Peterbilt 388 or 389 and he seemed to be pretty happy. Who knows. I'm sure for every driver that's happy with a company, you could find at least 10 that don't like them.

    A steering wheel holder is someone who meerly steers using his hands. He is not a super trucker that can steer with his elbows, knees, his chin or if the need arises his monsterous gut.

    Your going to be amazed with the APU. I did a overnight run this past week and had to sleep during the day. The temp peaked at 100 degrees and I woke up 3 times cus I was freezing my ### off.

    looking over at someone has nothing to do with being a steering wheel holder. you got truckdrivers and then you got steering wheel holders.

    the main difference is one has a brain the other one doesnt.

    come on smaggs, i have high hopes for you. figure it out.

    So I have to shave my unibtow and stop grunting at every female I see? Challenge accepted!

    On a serious note, I do prefer to use my head not only as a hat rack. I do jest a lot, which is sometimes difficult to hear via text.
