I can relate. I was an auto mechanic for 25 years, and got my CDL when I was 50. Wish I had done it 30 years ago. OTR is fun for the 1st year....
Learn to stay back, and always run a dash cam. I won't drive 10 feet without one.
Mega carriers might not touch you. Those companies suck anyway. Smaller ones will. They are all different.
Try Watkins Shepard WKSH dot com. They hire new CDL's. They have terminals all over the country, including Denver. Headquarters is in Missoula MT....
Been here a year. We haul raw milk. All local. Good equipment(we just got a bunch on new petes) Good hourly pay w/OT. Great insurance. Staff and...

Yeah, I figured as much with that. Dallas would be a challenge. It's just almost not worth going to work in CA. You never get ahead. This state...
I could live off what I pay in taxes in CA. Really sick of it. Considering moving to Vegas, Dallas, Knoxville, TN, maybe Nashville area or maybe...
Still having major routing problems only since the latest map update. You messed with it a few weeks ago, but still does the same thing. Now it...

Just got the map update for my 730. Now it behaves very erratically and takes horrible routs. For instance, if I want to go from Main St in Ripon,...
Just downloaded the map update for my 730. Won't install. Says "not enough space on your device". Now what? Update: I cleared history and now it...
