I stand corrected. It must be a new requirement for CVS DOT Physicals. In my case, I didn't have a local office. It was being monitored by a 3rd...
This might be old news for some, but DOT is now requiring a CPAP compliance report with physicals. A lot of carriers already did this but owner...
I'm looking at getting a truck, and I see a lot of 2014-2016 International ProStars with ISX15 engines and 450K- 650K miles for $15-$25K. Why are...
I get hungry just reading these posts! Another favorite of mine is the Ameristar Casino in Kansas City, MO. There is always plenty of truck...

I am jumping back in to driving after a 3 year hiatus working for a non-profit (long enough for the kids to get past childcare age). During my...
