    Not sure what you guys are on about then. Are you saying you would rather drive a POS?

    Cowboy be happy with your 29 cpm because i count 7 drivers in indiana terminal they quit because they were making 24 cpm and no miles, play the game and make a move whenever you ready.

    If i was you making 300 a week i would just drop the truck at the closest terminal and get a job at walmart or something, you will be home everyday and you making 8.50 in hour unless you like big blue werner because i have seen drivers making 250 a week they said they will stay because they like new trucks, the name of the company and the color usually they are rockies, loll.

    Alright, I'm not trying to be an ###, but are you saying 'Rockies' or 'Rookies'?? And if you're purposefully saying 'Rockies', what does that mean?

    Trucking is for Men or Women that don't fit in to the norm. I travel and get paid for it. I'm not ugly or fat. I have the overwhelming desire not to be anywhere for very long. My wife went with me till she passed away 9 years ago today. This country is my family, the road my friend. It's a hard life if you make it one. It's a wonderland if you don't.

    Sorry, but I wouldn't consider you to be an experienced driver with only one year under your belt. No offense, but give yourself another 5ish years in the industry and you'll see my point. To add another point: truck assignments are more luck of the draw and have nothing to do with seniority.
