Hi everyone! Just wanted to take a sec and introduce myself.
I've been a driver for 5 years now. I team with my hubby, Big Seuss. Right now we run dedicated reefer out of Florida. South-east regional runs, mostly.
We've starved in the beginning, paid our dues, and do pretty well now. We have 2 girls in college and are fortunate enough to pay for it without them taking out any loans.
I came here to help out the new folks. When I was new I didn't see much info about teaming. It is a completely different lifestyle from running solo. Not to mention finding ladies that team. It was like pulling chicken teeth.
My hubby's background is in welding, and I was a small business financial advisor for a Fortune 50 company. We ditches it all when the girls graduated to spend our time together. He fixes the truck and I handle the business decisions. It's worked out great.
We love trucking. The diesel has definitely gotten into our blood. Now we wouldn't do anything else.
