Great pics...good for you. Totally awesome when we someone beats the odds and can share their success.
Tip of the hat to you.

Merry Christmas TT
Great job. Congratulations. Keep up the good work.
Congrats, glad to see you were able to come over the odds and find work in trucking. Hope you continue to truck on!
Thanks for the replies everyone. I have decided to move on from the O/O I was driving for but I with the OTR experience I have now the job market is a little more promising. I will be sure to keep everyone updated! Happy Holidays!
OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.

Have had a lot of experiences in my last 6 months so here are some of my pictures! I made a youtube video too, enjoy!
Squeezing an empty trailer into a spot at the packing plant in my first tractor.

Pete 379 loaner truck I used for a week.

VERY tight dock north of St.Louis grabbing a back haul of eggs to take home.
Just came over Monteagle, TN and snapped this pic before bedtime at the fireworks shop before heading through Chattanooga the next morning. And no I didn't beat rush hour lol.
My last fill up before heading home last week. I had just sat North of St. Louis for several hours on HWY 61 due to glare ice/ freezing drizzle. I decided to take a 10 hour break rather than drive all the way back to central Iowa and got this picture the next morning. The whole lot as well as my entire tractor was sheet of ice.
And my super trucker selfie!
And here is the YouTube link for the video!

Merry Christmas everyone!

"Bobtailing" means you are driving a tractor without a trailer attached.
