    Happy New Year! So how did everyone do last year? I hit a little over 140,000 miles, not too bad. Seeing as this is like "the new adventure" thread after GTI (sucks butt) is everyone content and staying where they are?

    I'm doing great at BIG G EXPRESS. They keep me rolling. I did like SEC but they lost Goodman and I got tired of the Scrap Paper and the rest of the freight they started hauling. BIG G has better benefits and pay too. So far I'm not complaining about much here.

    I guess I did around 105,000 miles, took a lot of hometime and didn't even run hard while I was out.
    And you know what? 2015 was a great year for me.

    Well, the Drivecam experiment sucked, and cost me about 12 days drive time, but otherwise...

    I already posted my numbers for fiscal year beginning 12/01/2014 - 11/30/2015...124691

    With all the hometime I now take along with bonuses,short haul pay,more cpm and better benefits it turns out Heartland actually has done me a favor.
    No more Wyoming blizzards nor chains on my truck. #winning

    Running less miles and spending more time on the sofa.

    Netting out about the same $$ as last year to my pocket, after buying a trailer.

    Only concern is spent way too much on TRUCK repairs or I woulda had a great year but multipul $2k to $3k repair bills hurt a bit.

    Working for a small produce company in Cali has def made my home time better and the lack of quallcoms and elogs and ongard and speed limiters has decreased my stress level for sure!
