Hey John, hook me up with a good owner that's looking for a good driver for a str truck! Gonna run single this time with 'mama' as a rider. She said "No more driving for her"......lol She wants to sit back & enjoy the scenery for awhile. Is refreshing to FINALLY have a company out there that...

I've always driven for from 35% to 40% of the load pay, driving a straight truck. Owner pays for everything concerning the truck. Fuel, maintenence, tolls, insurance, etc. I'm paid to drive the truck, make deliveries on time. I would take care of maintenence schedules, etc.........Keep track of...

Our thoughts and prayers go out to family and friends. Godspeed Jerry!!!! See you again my christian brother.

Aaronrocker, you remind me of a 'know it all' kid that was in the same orientation with. He knew it all.........Think he was a whopping 21 or 22 yrs. old with what he claimed 'all these years of experience in a big truck'. Couldn't even have a conversation with the kid, he knew it all, done it...

If truck doesn't have a sleeper it can't be used is incorrect...........you can use it. But, if you simply need to show motel receipts as proof to where you slept, took your break, etc

Delivered 3 small packages to the White House in a 24' straight truck. Constant driver survielence required. Was met at the back gate by White House security, they inspected the truck, in and out, pulled just inside the gate and waited, a pick up truck met me there and transfered the load. They...

Ya'll have a short memory. Remember when "Slick Willy" used national healthcare for ALL AMERICANS as one of his major priorities when he was trying to get elected and re-elected??? Thanks "Willy" I'm really benefiting from your national health care!! The world is a better place because of...

What happens if while you just goin to the store and someone hits you or you hit some one else and your out of hours on your logs? I'm sure the d.o.t. cop is going to be real impressed when you tell him "Yes officer, I am out of hours, but I needed to get somethings and I didn't leave the city...

Good point Jack. I wonder just how many people in expedited are trying to get by without health insurance. That's nothing more than a disaster waiting to happen........... and trust me, sooner or later it will happen!!!

Sounds like truck dealers and company recruiters all come from the same litter, come to think of it, alot of dispatchers too!!! There must be a top secret training center for those people!!

Yepper!! If co-driver is in the jump seat, he/she is legally 'on duty' and must show it on their log..............If the truck is moving, the only time your 'off duty' is when your in the sleeper.

Good luck in your 'next chapter'. Let us know how long it takes before you start hearing the road calling your name. With anyone that's driven otr, unless you were totally miserable, you will soon feel the pang to get back out there. :) It can be very addicting!!

MJ, your making it more complicated than it needs to be. 60/40 split, whoever is getting the 60% gets the FSC.......plain and simple, whether it be the owner or driver. But your right, if any owner wants the contracted driver to pay anything whatsoever towards maintenance,,,,,,,,,RUN AWAY...

Hey Pilgrim, you need to get with the times! Gays have been accepted into the military for years now! Can't blame that on Pres. Bush. Millions have been getting a check from the gov't. for years, it's called welfare. Health care for everyone? Is that a bad thing? If I remember correctly the...
