    Seems I spend the better part of my 6 weeks out in Texas since the beginning of the year. Every time I get a load heading out East, it goes right back to Texas. I've become too acquainted with I-35 and 30 that I could drive them blind and deaf.

    Just curious how much of your running time is in Texas? Any Texas drivers, are they keeping you in state a lot too or sending you away from home?

    Not that I'm complaining, but closest I've been to NYC is Bridgewater, NJ. I haven't been to Massachusetts in quite some time. Well over a year now. Do we even haul to Mass anymore?

    Just want to see how you guys/gals are running. Take it easy out there,

    That's weird. I live not too far from Houston and the nearest I usually get to home is Irving or Laredo.

    But generally they keep me in the northeast.

    Gonna deliver a load in Chi-Town midnight Sunday.

    I do believe he is PAM like myself and a few others. I'm in Texas, but quite a long way from home!

    504 Wayne, if you have not yet gone to C1 I would HIGHLY recommend San Jacinto College Truck Driver Training.

    If it would not cost me 6K before a year is up I just might have already been gone!

    ALL C1 is trying to do is get you a CDL. And the Fort Worth operation is kinda hokey.
