Ok that actually made me laugh out loud. I'm at a truck stop diner in Wyoming, and I'm sure the other drivers are wondering what I read.truckdriver31 and slow.rider Thank this.

no requirements.
I've seen lots of petite ladies driving solo and doing better than some guys. lol
my last company had a girl about your size and she'd been driving for over 25 yrs. LTL. OTR and dump truck.truckdriver31 Thanks this. -
Basically as long as you can physically do the job and reach the peddals your good to go. Ive seen recently retired military in perfect shape. Guys in the 600+ club guys at 4 foot tall and guys 7 foot tall mean, women, trans and what i am fairly sure was a gorilla with glasses and a hat poseing as human and everything in between.

You're fine don't worry. I'm only 5'6 you just have to move the seat up a few more clicks than me Lol

I identify as a human so I demand to be treated as one. And at least at the truck stops I feel I fit in.
Hoo hoo hee to you sir.
