    My mind is quite sound and I know exactly what I'm talking about. So does anyone else that picks up a truckstop rag or turns on XM. As I said it can't be denied
    Best of luck to you!

    Every one of the co's you mentioned to him advertises. Mav has a very low turnover compared to other co's. That is why I know your speaking of nothing you know.

    The only thing you are making crystal clear is how little you know about trucking.

    Johnny33, NoTarps is correct you are out of your flipping mind. You have no clue as to what you are saying. Maverick's turnover is somewhere around 75% and this is not due to their hiring practice's it is due to the numerous people like you and THD who think they can be a truck driver. There is a lot more to driving a truck than just driving. THD won't make it flatbeding no matter the company.

    I never said they didn't advertise. I simply told him to go get his training at one of them. They are no better or worse than Maverick.

    I'm not going to debate what I know with either you or Hoosier. I worked for them several years back and I do know.

    Now we have to stoop to personal attacks. At what point did I attack anyone working for Maverick? Funny, I manage to drive my truck without a vorad or automatic cruise control. I can even shift my own gears and do my own logs.
    Gee, I sure hope someday I can be a Billy Bigrigger like you. Isn't it time to polish your belt buckle?

    Then you've probably got a cowboy hat too. I'm done with you Mav-bots.

    That is good because it is obvious you do not know much. Let me guess. Your one of them that got let go?

    johnnyr33,
    Yeah...I've got a set of spurs (a few sets actually), but you see...they aren't just for looks either. I've got a cowboy hat too..but haven't wore it since my wedding.

    So if you still think you can prove me to be a "wannabe"...go for it.

    Its funny how some people can't stand it when others are successful. You see johnny, I have only worked for 3 companies...not because I can't get hired anywhere else, but because I have succeeded everywhere I've worked.

    I started with Schneider Specialized and was with them for quite some time, then Maverick bought them...no real change for me, I still succeeded. I wanted to try my hand at what you are calling "cowboy truckin"...guess what, I succeeded there too. But fast trucks will get you speeding tickets, driving 14-16 hours everyday for 5 days straight will make you grow old quick (that even goes for the drivers who can safely do that), and its a headache...

    So guess what...I'm back at Maverick and happy as can be. I don't plan on leaving again, at least not as long as my health holds out. All those years of breaking horses and mules, with a few of them breaking me in a place or two, have left me with a few "scars". I'm a bit banged up, but I'll keep getting back on as long as there is a breath left in me...that you can bet the farm on.
