My hubby and I were eating dinner at the Holbrook T/S in AZ. A FedEx couple walks in and sits across the aisle from us and we started talking. The lady driver said that I should look into driving for Fedex. I laughed and said "why would I want to drive a wiggle wagon? Sometimes one trailer is bad enough but 2.. Anyways, I think that pissed her off.. lol.. She said once you drive two you'll never go back to a 53'. They were really pushy, said that they were safe drivers and yada yada.. And I wanted to say, then how come last winter the only in the ditches were double fedex trailers? whatever lady... not crazy enough for double.. lol

High, glad to no i didnt offend u, and, i am 22 years old, only been driving a few months, im not one of those drivers yous speak of.... i dont no jack about this indusrty, however, i no a lot more then most of the new drivers, and may no more then some seasoned drivers... its what iv always wanted to do my whole life... i often impress people with the knowledge i have of the trucking industry.... when my disp told me to do somehing, that no driver in thier right/wrong/or even crooked mind wouldnt think of doing, i told him no, and gave him a quick run down of what the back-lashes would be like myself and even him had we got caught...and then he asked me a paticular question that i, as a new driver to the industry, should not have known, and i answered his question fully, plus some... impressed the heck outa him
peple have tried taken advantage of me, being the
" new kid ", and i dont accept it from them, and i tell them th facts.. they are schoked and tell me i should not know that....
but, i dont no jack about it -

I've dragged wiggle-wagons quite a bit and, like Lilbit said, while they are sharper turning, they are more work. Used to haul a set for chips and constantly had to break them apart. Wintertime could be interesting with empty wagons.
