    Thanks. Looking to pick up my truck with luck this week and have to make my way to Tx/NM area.


    Last company (17+ years ago) would dispatch me to the area and they would say I25>I20>I5 etc (as an example.)

    They had us programmed on the route to the mile and if you varied, you heard about it. I stayed there long enough to get the needed experience to get a job with an O/O.

    Leased on with BigBadBill at Farm2Fleet. Hope to go full independent in 12-18 months if possible. Not sure if I will since he pretty much lets us run at will. Occasionally helping with company stuff.

    chomping at the bit here. Nothing worse than a trucker with no truck to move in. Especially when you already paid for it.

    Waiting on the prorate account and 60 day cab card from the state is all to get rolling.
