I bet, it's certainly a nice spot in that area. Anything interesting happen on the road to you out there??

Just wondering if anybody out here has any good stories about Nashville and trucking through the state? Going to be heading out there - for lesiure, not business - and was curious. Just thought it'd be a good topic!

Ideally? I suppose I would like to work with agriculture or lifestock if possible. I grew up in a community where those industries thrived. Though, I am open to many different types of indsutries. In all honesty I'm new to trucking and open to ideas. The idea of expedited trucking was floated to...

^ Huh, not sure why the link got removed, just wanted other people to be able to check it out and give me a heads up for a position? Not going to re-link because I don't want to violate the code, but I'm just trying to get some help here - if anybody can clear this up please let me know, I...

Found this company online, have a friend (U.S. Vet) currently working for them - USXpress - Does anybody have any feedback on them? My friend seems happy but he's also not the most demonstrative person when it comes to these things. Anybody worked for them or know anybody who has? Anything...

Congrats on making that decision! Hoep you and your partner do well in this next step of your career. Have you begun to look into carriers/where to rent from?

Anybody else?? C'mon, let's get this thing going!

I like this subject category, I definitely feel like a driver's health is paramount to performing well on the well (obviously.) I thought this might be a good venue to post some articles/writing for tips about staying healthy. This could be about physical health, mental health, you name it...

Heard good things about R+L Carriers. I can think of a few more. Shoot me a PM if you want more ideas, links, etc.

Totally understood. I believe on Trucker's Report they may even alow some outside submissions if you're interested in contributing to them, but I'm not 100% certain on that. (It doesn't hurt to check, regardless.) I suppose that really goes for any site - keep bugging them with submissions until...

^ Great question and thank you for the ideas. I hadn't considered videography at all, but that could be incredibly interesting. Not to mention something really something to look back on and to have fun compiling. Not sure if anybody has mentioned Sirius yet, but I am definitely going to invest...

^ Agreed. There are some great practice quizzes online as well for your partner that I discussed on another thread that I'd be happy to link over. Anything to help.

Welcome bmw236! I'm a newbie myself. Hope everything works out with you and your partner. How is your partner coming along with his CDL traning btw?

Oh, ok good to know. Thanks for getting back to me.
