Looking at May trucking..after running several months with May and staying out for 4 weeks at a time will they allow you to stay home for maybe a month straight once during the year? I guess you would lose your truck and have to start over when getting back. Would like to run hard most of the year but take an extended break once in a while.

Then a little later he asked me and my wife to lunch with him and a friend, we accepted. What was unexpected after sitting down to order he offered to buy our lunch, he insisted. After lunch my impression of Trucker Steve was: He's a professional, he's generous and he is very knowledgeable.
I worked for May through 2015 never saw Steve again, but if I ever see him again, lunch is on me.desperado75 and Speed_Drums Thank this. -
I started with May as a company driver. After 6 months I lease purchased a Freightliner. I paid it off on time and got clear title in my name only with no delay or problem. The shop mentioned that it would be a good time to sell as the truck was in very good condition for having 800,000 miles. I mentioned it to another driver and got a cash offer from a fleet owner. Sold it. I didn't have a truck! May offered to let me drive a company truck until I found one I wanted. I agreed and the put me into a 379 EXHD and I drove it for 8 months. I could have lease purchased it. It was a difficult to give it back but I chose another Freightliner. I drove it until I turned 62 and paid it off, got title, sold it and retired. I wish I would have gone to work for them sooner. What I did not like: Rand McNally mileage. Although it didn't prevent me from completing the lease purchase(s) successfully. I worked for them with a positive attitude. They are fair and honest in their business dealings. I don't know how elogs will affect leasers or company drivers but likely not good. Government seems to always make things worse.
