    My absolute favorite part about driving a truck at present is the $600 + that I'm putting in to savings that would otherwise go to a landlord. Staying out 4ish weeks at a time and taking 5 days off feels like a mini vacation and I really enjoy that schedule.

    Since you're new, I'll include this; My first year was the most exhilarating, scared s-less fun I've ever had in my life.

    Best part of trucking...is trucking.
    Cant beat rolling down the highway,enjoying the scenery,and getting paid for it.
    Too bad we spend too much time at truck stops and shippers,receivers.
