<p>[QUOTE="peanut, post: 322442, member: 11886"]I can't tell u anything about US-Express,but i can tell u about my experience when i ran teams with a close friend that i knew for 5 years. First of all if you are not a hard sleeper it will not work out for you, because going down the interstate in a tractor-trailer is not like going down the road in a four-wheeler. The weight of the load and the road conditions play a big part in the way the semi feel inside while you are trying to get some rest from a 10 or a 11 hour run u put in before your co-driver start driving.That is just one thing u have to consider before teaming-up with your friend<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies-vb/roundies/biggrin_25524.gif" class="mceSmilie" alt=":biggrin_25524:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies-vb/roundies/biggrin_25524.gif" class="mceSmilie" alt=":biggrin_25524:" unselectable="on" /> Also get ready to have some arguments,becuase it is going to be like u just got married. LOL </p><p>The reason i say that because you and your co-driver are not going to argree on everything. I started out just like you and your friend, i thought it was going to be the best thing ever,but it back-fired on me.</p><p>Me and my friend are still the best of friends,but teaming up was not the best thing for us. I AM NOT TRYING TO PUSH U AWAY FROM TEAMING UP JUST THINK IT OVER!!!!!!! YOU NEED YOUR SLEEP ON THAT ROAD AND PEACE OF MIND!!!!! Wish u and your friend best of luck<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies-vb/roundies/biggrin_25525.gif" class="mceSmilie" alt=":biggrin_25525:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies-vb/roundies/biggrin_25525.gif" class="mceSmilie" alt=":biggrin_25525:" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
