So you're a trucker! Me, too. I always drove what the company provided. Never had the gonadinals to buy my own. I tip my CAT hat to you...

I was a truck driver, until 9 years ago...
I drove dump truck and pup for 3 years. Then bought my own when work was slow. I only had 3 trucks and hauled wood chips, sawdust and hog fuel for 7 years. I ran only daycabs. Everything was local and home every night. Then leased onto Boise Cascade and Gordon Trucking for the longhaul world. I bought a new 2005 (?) 379 Longnose for $116,000.00 for Gordon. I went to work for SWIFT heavy haul, that's all I ever did, so I could bring the truck and trailer home every night living in BFE in eastern Washington. Got a job working for Gardner Triucking and hyperextending my right knee at 57 and that was it.
I miss it for sure..
