no body will hire me any info on my story

OK. My mistake. I thought it was the same person. Maybe I should get my glasses changed.

Thanks for pointing that out. I guess this was my stupid post of the day. Look out for more.

I deleted the content of that post. If you would be kind enough to delete my quote in your post, I will only look somewhat stupid, instead of totally stupid.

 

Actually it's my bad... I set the pace by responding to the second poster as if it was the first.

 

Way to go, PP.

 

Thanks Joetro.

 

I'm about to pay $2800. for a 80 hour refresher with sage to get back into trucking.

 

Stranger my dad owned a truck like the one in your avatar. Trucks sure have come a long way!

 

They sure have. That truck had no A/C, P/S, very little heat, no air ride seat or suspension. No stereo. It was very loud inside, and with 40,000 lbs on it would run 53 MPH wide open along I-12 in La.

All that and it got 4.1 MPG. Yes, the good old days.

 

Hey, 4.1 isn't too bad. My '91 Freightliner didn't do that well. About 3.5, loaded or empty.

 

It started out at 3.7, then I got into the pump, which gave a little more power and better fuel mileage.
