Hey Everyone, Thanks for the advice. The wife passed her general knowledge test today and is going to take her air brakes test on monday. Next week she will be on vacation and in the truck with me. Hopefully next week will give us a little insight on how it will be. Again, thanks for the advice.

Ladies, As you may already know I have been involed in expediting for a short time(a year). My wife is considering quiting her secretary job to come on the road with me. What advice can you give me in training her. What advice can you give her on making the transition? Any advice will be...

Thought I'd give an update. I've been with Tri State for about a month now and I'm loving it so far. I'm glad my owner made me swap, so far.

Just make sure you get contract which states how much your pay will be and what your expenses will be. It could save your butt in the long run. Just a piece of advice. Hope it works out good for you.

I have 2 questions for you. How old are you? And how much experience do you have?

Thanks for the advice John. My owner is going to allow my wife to practice in his truck that I drive after she gets her permit. He also said she can take the test in the truck as well. Again thanks for the advice and I hope you have a great remander of the year.

Does anyone know of a good spot that has some practice CDL tests on them to help my wife study with?

Bryan, I know it's not Sunday and were not in church, but you are preachin' the truth my brotha. Amen on money and month left over after the bills are paid. I heard that.

Yeah I wouldn't work for them. They want get you home. The miles won't be that great and the pay won't either. A friend of mine was working there and he was home 3 days a month. That wouldn't be so bad if they hadn't promised him every other weekend home. If a big company like that doesn't get...

RE: Questions to ask and answers to get before acc Something that hasn't been brought up yet is a contract. When they tell you how much they are going to pay you ask them if they will put it in writing. I've driven for two expedite owners. The first one I didn't have a contract with and didn't...

What is the story on the chat room. Wasn't it supposed to be tonight?

If it's all the same then why is reefer fuel charged and shown different than on road fuel on the fuel ticket. They asked for advice about an aux fuel tank and I gave it. Everyone says they don't want anything added on the truck after the factory. BS. I hope that didn't come from anyone in a...

I enjoy haulin hazmat. I think i'd rather haul it than the non hazmat freight. Don't know way. That's just me.

Truckwife, My 2 cents worth is that it doesn't matter what company you are with they reserve the right not to do what they say they will. On the other hand most dispatchers/carriers thinks no driver/owner operator has the right to not do what they say they will, but the company belives you...

Hey rode they need to pay for all that stuff if they only give you one load a week

I said a reefer tank not a reefer. Plus with the extra tank one could run off road fuel which is cheaper. That was the point i was making.

Could you please explain exactly what hid lights are?
