    He sure did lol. He always drank Straub up there to support local business. He wasn’t much of a drinker at home but at deer camp I think it’s mandatory lol. I get the boozing from my moms drunk side of the family.

    LMAO.... Yes, mandatory at camp for sure! Glad he likes to support local business as I do my share also. I don't drink like I used to but still like to enjoy some cold ones for sure. Washington, PA...been down there plenty of times in my trucking days. Matter of fact, that's where I ended up on 9/11. Never forget it.

    Been here my entire life. Should have left but now I’m stuck. Girlfriend loves her job and is in a specialized field so we can’t move just anywhere. Plus we are in a decent school district. Kids have taken importance over my wanting to move LOL.

    I started following this a few weeks ago. Had a lot of catching up to do at first but lots of good reading in between. LOL. From what I've read, Morehouse seems like a pretty good company. Don't know if they hire out of PA though. My plans when I do get my CDL again are to put my name in at the local Pepsi plant as from what I hear they need CDL drivers. My stepson works there but he does sales/merchandising. A good job for sure but just incase if I would have to go back out on the road would like to find a decent company.

    Welcome ....if you live anywhere near 80 from Ohio to the 260mm or 81 from the NY line down to hazelton...or 322/ 99 from 80 down to Harrisburg or ...83 from Harrisburg to the Maryland line ...or 30 from Philadelphia to York to Harrisburg you could be home every week here and only deal with the same group of shippers and receivers .
    We do some jersy but no NYC, also anything along the southern tier of New York ( 17) near northern penn will work...like Bradford .
    We are heavy from omaha to ...
    Binghamton ny
    Manchester pa .
    Warrendale pa .
    Most of our outbound comes out of Philadelphia, hazelton and some new jersey and goes back to Nebraska and Iowa.
    Keep in mind Morehouse despises toll roads and company drivers won't been seen on the patp , the ohio or Indiana toll roads.
    They do pay bridge crossings on the Delaware River tho .

    I'm about 30 miles north of 80 at the 101 mm. Don't sound like too bad of a running area, I could get used to that. Don't blame them for not wanting their trucks on the PA tpk. Wayyyyy too expensive. I never liked running that pike myself but did like going through the tunnels.
