    My line of figguring is.... If a fella had a weekend off in an area with the brickyard 400 and all kinds of other things going on.... Why? Would you spend it at a truckstop? No matter what you were driving.

    Age of truck

    I totally agree. And, me to prefer an "experienced" truck. Always have and always would. Always would prefer to work with a mechanic rather than a technician.

    I did. That is why y'all need to be looking elsewhere for opportunity. It's not rocket science, just look around. IF you are as good as you claim, it'll work out.
