I know I'm going to get flamed (but nevertheless I still need some help)

qualcomm is not much more than a computer tough enough to withstand the roads we run on. Learning a companies programs is easy. Admittedly I am relatively inexperienced but as long as you can mange your clocks, deliver on time and keep the truck in between the lines you're supposed to be then you'll be fine.

What type of places have you put these trailers into? What type of backing have you had to deal with?

 

the SKILL in doing what you describe will serve you well for sure. The point is you have a VERY GOOD understanding of the movements to steer the tail of a trailer.Just need to get used to the length of a 53 or whatever you do get hooked to. You said you were really hoping for tank? Not sure but I think those are 40'?

Anyrate, good luck with your path. If you need to be patient that cant hurt in the big picture. Just keep your nose and record clean between now and then.

The single most important thing in all that you are experiencing now is learning from this and applying it going forward!!!!

 

There is no such thing as un-insurable. What there is, is a higher cost of insurance then you company is willing to pay. If you cannot find anyone to take you, then you might have to pay for your own insurance. I am not sure if that is possible but it should be. Check with OOIDA.

 

Only three ways to skin this cat that I know of. 1 get someone to insure you. 2 Some how get it off your DMV report. 3 Stop drinking 4 ever.

 

Not sure where you are with the company you were talking to, but if that didn't pan out and you still REALLY want to drive truck, here's a suggestion you may or may not like. Texas and North Dakota oilfields are crazy right now. There are tons of startup companies just riding the wave that just want a body in the seat. Hours are long, conditions are miserable, but the money is good. It would at least keep you behind the wheel for awhile till things clear up.
