No NEED for SPEED

Good for u buddy . its to bad there is no purple hearts in trucking to award you based on your unmatched bravery as a supertrucker.

 

I wish I was only paying geico $250 every 6 months for full coverage.

Cheapest I can get is progressive. $450. But because my son lives with me. They're a no go.

 

Well, I don't mean to be rude, but many drivers today don't have that luxury, and I know the feeling of getting hung up somewhere, and have to drive like heck to make it, or wait until Monday. We didn't have the luxury of cell phones to inform someone of trouble, even looking for a phone could take a half hour. In our defense, things weren't so time sensitive like today, and many places expected something could go wrong. In an ironic twist, I had places that told me to call the receiver at home if I had trouble, and they would come back and unload me. Try THAT today!!! Also, your 3rd paragraph is bunk. You only hear of the few bad drivers doing what you state, and 99% of the drivers today are still good drivers. That's a fact or this country wouldn't exist.

 

I know with milk. You don't make it. You sit till tomorrow

 

99%? I think that thin mountain air is getting to you

 

How can you be a supertrucker and not speed lol?

 

Yeah...I think its more like 70%- You're off their semi-retired.
We See whats out here now- And Its Terrible.

I Mean...As People they may be ok- But their Driving habits are Ridiculous- And this isn't 1 out of 20 either..

 

You know that guy telling lies at the lunch counter? Supertrucker.
That guy that's done it all and seen it all and pulled every load known to man? Supertrucker
You know that guy that can top any war story, road story, any story, even "The Greatest Story Ever Told"? Supertrucker
That guy that immediately volunteers all of his entire work history and all you said was hello? Supertrucker.

You: Good morning, hand.
Supertrucker: Well, I've been driving for 37 1/2 years and I say good morning.
You: Think it will rain today?
Supertrucker: Well, in my experience from my 16 years at LandStar, I believe it will.
You: This place is so slow about unloading...I've been waiting here for 6 hours.
Supertrucker: Well, I believe it was in nineteen hundred and eighty two, may have been three, I got stuck at a shipper for three hundred and eighty seven days.
You: 387 days?
Supertrucker: Yessir. Told my dispatcher that I would never go back there again.

 

^^^^^
Met a Quality Carriers driver last week, Let me rephrase that, Got stuck with a QC driver. Full of stories
Just sold his 2015 389, he put over a million miles on it in 3 yrs, He was driving an older Cascadia now.
He gets $8. a mile, loaded, empty or even bobtailing.He's been in over a dozen accidents since he started out in 1977, And the same mega carrier and driver wrecked him twice in the same week.
I could go on.
Couldn't get away from him, We were unloading next to each other.
