    Trucking is fun and exciting. 7 months so far in the industry and we are actually loving it.

    As long as we set our goals, put in time and effort, refuse hometime and sitting, and pushing more miles with more mph then we all should able to help our boss to get onr of these by end of this year

    ...That takes probably 40 acres and a mule to turn around from the looks of it.

    That was my first thought as well. Even a tractor-trailer articulates a bit, that is a full wheelbase. I guarantee you it is a (redacted) to drive in small confines.

    Shouldn't be worse than a bus to maneuver. ???
