Hi everyone. My name is Alan from western NC. After nearly 20 years as a driver, 10 of that with Mclane Company ('92-2002) I was placed on medical disability for diabetes. Insulin dependent. I decided to go into ministry and am currently a preacher, however, after 5 years of working on my health I am considering driving again. Basically, for the benefits. I have searched this site and the companies that will consider me after 5 years out of the truck are not getting very favorable responses. Might just keep preaching the Word!!

 

Im 28 years old and just graduated from truck driving school. Everything else can be summarized in myspace page, including pics of the rig I was driving in school.

Hi all, I am Mike and I have been driving trucks for 20yrs or so. Mainly part time. Drove log truck and dump truck some during college. It may sound wierd, but I now drive truck as second job. I work for a local LTL company in Portland, Oregon.
I did long haul with my dad for awhile and also worked for May Trucking for a very short time.

 

Hello everyone, my name is Amanda, my husband Chris and I came across this website while doing our research for entering the trucking field.

We plan on becoming a husband and wife team, and this website has been great at providing many answers to our many questions. Right now we live in Knoxville TN but when we become drivers, are planning to just be nomads, hehe.

Hello everyone,

My name is Kim and my husband drives otr for a comp out of Oklahoma. He also looks at this board and we were trying to look at the same time so I created my own name on here. I enjoy reading and responding on here. Thanks for letting the non driving other halfs take part. My hubby is on here as cclarke1268, or otherwise known as CJ.

I hope you all stay safe out there, and god bless!

Hi everyone, my name is Crystal and I've been married to my wonderful hubby David for 12 years. We have 2 girls ages 11 and 7 and one son age 6. David drove a gas tanker for 9 years but the company cut hours with no raise so now he is in Iowa on his 4th day of training with TMC. The change has been hard on us (me mostly lol) but I'm sure that we will make this work. Gotta have faith! I found this site when we were researching companies. I"ve got some good info from here but I have also heard the good the bad and the ugly.

 

Hi My name is Michelle (obviously) and my husband Chris is the driver in our family. Stumbled on this site looking for some answers for him and thought everyone looked fairly friendly! (yes I am naive lol).
