Hi all, been awhile since I've been on here. Just want to tell all of you new drivers to be careful. I spent 5+ years with Roehl 10+ total in a...
So I haven't been on in a long time... Been really busy. Working hard, at work and home. I hope you all are doing well. I see Roehl trucks all...
Roehl is a good choice as a starter company. You should be able to make around $40k a year to start as a ball park figure. They do have a top...
