You just look old for your age. Sometimes going through puberty does that so it just might be a hormonal issue.

I gave it considerable thought the past few weeks. Even checked out non driving jobs.
Checked out a flatbed company because they would run me back and forth where I wanted to go. Problem was I had to lease on and end my authority. Turns out I’m doing just fine with what I’m doing. Just tired of the normal BS drivers.TheLoadOut, Sons Hero, austinmike and 11 others Thank this. -

Just turned 150K on the new truck. Still doing about the same most weeks as the last 8 months or so. Most weeks are still pretty good but some turn out to be just ok. Last week was a ok week but not gonna retire on that stuff for sure. Found a couple loads that have been pretty steady but they will be coming to an end until next year shortly is my understanding.
No change from last year for me either.blairandgretchen, Oxbow, ducnut and 4 others Thank this. -
This is the reason I am still not to concerned. Doing fairly decent with MPG's. I would hate to be in this economy with a 5-6 MPG truck.

Here are last years results for comparison. https://www.thetruckersreport.com/truckingindustryforum/threads/closing-up-shop-or-thinking-about-it-2-0-heavy-hitters-welcome.2458083/
I think the lack of overall replies since last night shows something too. I get it though for sure, I’ve not been as active either as the grind can make a guy feel “over it” sometimes.
Better times ahead.PPLC, TheLoadOut, blairandgretchen and 9 others Thank this. -

I’m still plugging away being a fake owner operator. Not much has changed, money is still about the same. I bounce farther to skip broker loads if we have our own stuff somewhat close. I plan on running 4 more weeks up until Thanksgiving and then calling it a year. My partner has been back in school so she can get back into nursing again. She’s done with that in December and then just has to test out. Things might be changing for me after the first of the year but until then it’s business as usual.
