Erik Ray says
Hmm not everyone that drives have families at home. I live alone, no girl, no kids, no pets. Just my preference, I don't want any kids until I own my home out right. I spent my entire childhood moving every 2-3 years, and having to say goodbye to my friends over and over. I'm only 29 and been driving for 5 years now, getting close to that goal soon. I stay out 3 to 6 months at a time so I'm always earning, and pushing towards my goals. Once I get me my house I can retire from trucking, and go into a career field closer to home like mechanical work or something. Maybe then I'll start a family, still not sure on that yet. But home ownership is a necessity for me none the less. Just kinda thinking out loud.

Yea brokers keep 80% of the load profits and give truckers not even enough to pay bills look at the load

When we had elog imposed on us no one stood up for us. I'm glad I saved enough money to take time off from work to stay safe. Not worth risking your life for a people who don't appreciate you.

mr rebel says
no one considered how the plants get fuel to the trucks? thank a tankerman..
mr rebel says
what about the inland captains and tankerman that are pushing and pumping 50,000 bbls of diesel at a time so these trucks can run!? it takes 65 trucks to carry what one regulation tow carries in fuel. I haven't seen my wife or kids in 30 days..
Derail 69 says
Boy a trucker shutdown right now would change alot rules and regulations!!!
