    No pension, but a paid-for house and a few other things. I did just under $61k last year thru 12/21 when I left. And I'm not a particularly hard runner either. Income-wise, I was happy.

    The second photo showing the back of the tractor and the trailer ripped open really makes me sick. It looks as if he was just driving along when the other guy went over the line and hit him. Prayers for all involved.

    That wasn't the back...that was the front and the frame of the truck was beside it (in front of where the cab was laying). Appears that the rolls kept going when they collided. Very sad...shows how fast things can happen.

    I like crete over all they have treated me pretty good
    My only problem I have trouble getting home some times and I live in North east indiana and the length of haul is very spotty
    Wish I could average 800 mile trips I was told 650 average which is ok but since I came to work to crete in November 2013 I'm averaging maybe 550 if I'm lucky
     
    Wild Murphy Thanks this.
