    This is Brownsville / Matamoros

    They can steal the #### tarps as far as I am concerned but will be hard as the piece is loaded on top of them

    And you think my equipment was free? lol I think they rob more people in Atlanta and Houston than Mexico.

    Don't underestimate the value of being home with your family.

    It sad but true, that pilot next to 610, people there are sketchy, I heard stories of people getting their tarp stolen left and right, especially if you park by the exit on the back.
    Another story i heard was of a tire guy at the Loves in Baytown selling tires that look new but rotten and as soon as you put air they expand and crack.
    In Atlanta the petro in the city is too ghetto and dirty and only place to stay "safe" anywhere else ill have the sig next to me.

    Yeah I know but this whole work a day here and then there is crap! Makes it to hard with money and stretching it. Besides I honestly miss the open road, I've had enough Chicago driving to last me a lifetime!!!

    I understand where you are coming from. In fact, I have an open truck if you are serious...but some things are more important than money and trucking. Just be sure its really better for you and your family and not just frustration with the union BS. Before you know it things will be busy and you will be getting all kinds of overtime.
