11 yrs exp CLEAN MVR looking for partner to team with for Crete Carriers

HI ALL!

I'm new to the forum. Decided to put a post out to see if I could find a new partner to team with. Looking for someone in a 100 mile radius of Quad-Cities Iowa/Illinois for convenience of being close to each other for home time. I'm currently driving at home but cleared and accepted to start with Crete Carriers (again) on Sept 9th but may bump it back to 16th.

Here's a little background on me...I'm 44 yrs. old. Happily married to a WONDERFUL woman for 11 yrs. , together about 14. We have no children...but we haven't given up on that yet.
I have 11 yrs. exp. including Flatbed, RGN, Step deck, Heavy haul, Over-sized, and Van. Clean MVR and NO ACCIDENTS. Was teaming OTR with my wife for Crete 2010-2012 but had to come home and get a local job due to my mothers health issues. Wife wont be rejoining me so she can stay home with mom. Would prefer a driver with experience, but may consider someone with less. Just thought I would be pro active and try to find my own partner instead of waiting on them to find one.
I am a smoker, however, I keep myself and my TRUCK CLEAN inside and out. I like all kinds of music. I'm not a chatterbox, but I don't mind conversation either.
I come with an XM Radio, Truck routable GPS, Stryker CB, Big Dog lock, King Pin Lock, and the truck has a refrigerater, and APU so when/if stopped you can actually get some sleep. If you have your own equipment I'm open to that too.
In my experience with Crete. Teams had New Internationals...( Like 800-1500 miles new) and priority single dispatch with 20,000-23,000 miles per month approx. All miles pd. MT/LD. Good pay and benefits. Yadda Yadda. We ran a lot of PA. to CA. Midwest to CA. to TX. OH.to LA. a I think once or twice NJ never forced to NY but could take them if u wanted NEVER the burroughs. Just as a few examples. The only draw back is teams stay out 3-4 wks. I know this is an issue for some people.

What I'm looking for.... Someone who appreciates/participates in a clean truck. A driver with no accidents and good driving record...let's face our lives are in each others hands, ya know. Someone who cares about their personal appearance and how Shippers/Receivers perceive you/us/Company. I'm not a clean freak but don't want to share a small space with a slob that's all. A TEAMWORK ATTITUDE. Everybody has bad days, it's nice to be able to count on your partner, and I'm happy to do the same. If I irritate you please tell me so I don't do it again! LOL I'm not that hard to get along with especially if you communicate. And someone who's ready to turn and burn and make some $$$$$$$$"$$$$$$$$
If you have any questions/comments, or if I've left anything out. Get Back to me.

Thanks, and Drive Professional
