    No experience in tankers no problem. Even if you have no experience period, no problem. Long as you got your cdl a they'll train you properly to make it

    Well had a goos start loaded and drove 500 plus Monday and then unloaded today and drove a total of 600plus. Currently at chicago quala. Sucks that my load tomorrow is a 50mile drive, load ,drive 250 and unload for the next day. thats alot of sitting for 2days. So im gonna see about getting something else because thats like 150 a day plus a load/unload. Thats like 1days work imo. Hope the work gets better i wanna have a good week this time. Really feel i need to make more money lately but i digress.

    I'll be sleeping at the Chicago Quala after I drop this trailer there when empty. We all need to make more money but not here well unless you get 19Ds old dispatcher lol. Then you will be getting those 1900 weeks.

    Had my first breakdown lol should of knocked on wood when I said nothing happened to me yet. 2.8 miles from the Quala wash I lose all power steering. Broke down in the city cause Qualcomm likes shortest route so had to pull over into a private drive since I was not going to make the turn and to not block traffic.

    Must of hit too many pot holes since there is power steering fluid all over the engine block and dripping on the ground. 20180221_135607.jpg

    Yep stuck on that corner for a few hours. 3 tow trucks had to come out. 1 to pull me and 2 too block traffic. Saw a few trucks need rescue because that turn under the bridge is tight and my butt end was still somewhat in the road.
