    What a nightmare..reminds me of when I broke down.in Chicago in January and was stuck in a hotel a 5 days. I was going home the next day when my truck got miraculously fixed. Trucking can go to #### quick. Your story is a lot worse than mine though. I wouldn't give up on trucking just yet. I worked for May Trucking for a few years..and started there. Pay is mediocre but it's gotten better. Trucks are good/ newer and less than three years old. You are not going to get a truck with a lot of miles..they are all freightliners. I would def. recommend them if you are starting out..I went over the mountains all over the PNW for the winters and always felt confident with their equipment..good luck!

    Sounds like they didn't do any type of maintenance inspection on that tractor before giving it to you. It was probably getting ready to be traded out.
