CR England

I don't know exactly where you live or call home. My personl advice from experience is to make sure when choosing your next company is that they have a terminal or satellite terminal near your house. This should make getting home a piece of cake. I took this approach and now I'm home almost every other day and still making decent pay.

Share your memorable moments....

Riding through the Salt Flats of Utah for me. I loved the majestic clouds and how they gave off the illusion of being closer than they actually were.

Idling at a truck stop

Truckers usually idle trucks when they don't have APUs. During the peak of winter and summer if you don't havs an APU, you either idle the truck or freeze or burn to death.

Trucking firm to pay at least $14 million in crash that killed 5 nursing students

I was so upset when this event happened that I almost quit trucking all together. No amount of money can erase the pain suffered from the families and the driver.

Cascadia vs. T680

The Cascadia has a superior turning radius and more room in cab and sleeper.

The T680 IMHO is much smoother at shifting and accelerating.

I started out with a T680 with my first company and now I'm in a Cascadia. Overall both are good trucks but I'm partial to the 680.

How many drivers stay at the first company they drove / drive for ?

Their can be a a plethora of reasons why a driver would change companies. Here are a few reasons (more money, regional, more home time, local opportunities, miles, can't get along with staff, becoming an owner andoperater, and leaving the industry all together.)

Most people with ambition will always look ahead for greener pastures. What works for you today may not work for you tomorrow. If your not content with your current situation after gaining experience you have the right to exercises your options.
