Picking my own freight baby! My journey to & of being on Schneider choice, the Adventure & Numbers!

Impressive... Your Susie Homemaker in the truck... Good deal You probably have to save a nice chunk of change doing all the cooking... And ya I agree much better eating that it must be not having to eat in the truck stops... Good restaurants at truck stops are hard to come by although, there are a few out there

I'm just not afraid to do what needs to be done to live my life my way! My childhood wasn't the best so I learned how to take care of myself at a very young age everything from cooking gourmet meals to sewing clothes if I have to. I created my own curtains for my truck that go around the side windows and windshield so no light comes in and it had a thermal backing to help reduce the heat from direct sunlight. Now when I hand to sleep during the day I have no outside lights coming in and it keeps the cab cool by about 15-20 degrees because it blocks out the sun at the window.

It's all how you making trucking work for you.

And yes, I save a lot because I cook my own food. I'm trying to pay if debt and I'm now on the last 11 months on what has been a 2 year journey so far. I'm down to my last 46k.

 

Nice aint nothing wrong with sewing and being a hands on man and doing what you gotta do to make yourself comfortable... Hope you didn't take any offense to me calling you Susie Homemaker, I was giving you props...

Ouch that's a heck of a debt, good to hear your getting it down...

 

Naw, you're not the first one to call me that. I've learned to take it as a compliment. Right now I'm actually sewing 2 costumes for the Renaissance festival I'm going to for Halloween.

I started trucking because I got screwed over by a business partner and I had to sell everything I had. When I started trucking 2 years ago today actually, I had over 100k in debt.

 

I agree except on the occasion I decide to become one of the after midnight bombed idiots

 

Those work but they eventually melt down, literally. Just bite the bullet and get a 1500 watt or higher power invertor. Then go to Walmart and buy a real toaster oven. The one I have is a rotisserie as well.
