Dang. This one is blatant. Was on the freeway & from a distance thought it might be a tour truck hauling the bands gear or something. So I sped up. LOL! Geez. Seriously guys, at least make an attempt to be original.

I used to have a commercial truck driving license. I haven't driven a big rig for a long time. These pictures make me want to drive one again. I hated driving in town but loved being on an open road late at night in the middle of nowhere.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

I've often thought of doing it. I would want long haul. Cross country type stuff. Listening to Coast To Coast while out in some middle of nowhere Nevada highway. have a bulldog. Live in the sleeper cab. Know all the truck stops. Now that I have nothing holding me anywhere I would love it. Total freedom and solitude.“Great losses often bring only a numb shock.

I drove for my dad's construction company. He had some idiot employees that did something stupid with a company truck and were lucky to not have killed someone. It was in his refractory division which was very profitable but you had to find people willing to work in industrial furnaces in very tough conditions. A lot of people would quit. The money was awsome because they had to pay it to keep employees. I was making $6,000 a week in the mid-80's working on coal fired power plants and nuclear power plants. What was awsome is I was kept on the same pay scale to drive a company truck We worked everything west of the Mississippi. I drove the truck and that was my job. It beat running a 90 pound jack hammer with silica dust flying around in the 100 plus degree air so thick you couldn't see wearing a respirator.
My brother in law drives for Associated Grocers in Seattle. He loves that short haul and the challenge of backing into small loading docks. It would drive me crazy. He's made a good living doing it and is about to retire. One of my friends was an independent trucker but you have to keep the rig going all the time to pay for it and it's hard to make any real money due to the overhead. Fuel prices are a killer. So he hired on with Wal-Mart. He just drives and collects a check and likes it better than owning his own rig.
If you want to long-haul it's hard if you have a family situation with kids. It can be wonderful if you have a girlfriend or wife that wants to ride along. The people that drove the moving van when we moved up here were a husband and wife team. They loved it.
Give it a shot. There is no reason you can't do it. Trucking is a business that you have to be flexible and willing to move where the opportunities are. If you have some education you always can get on the management side of things. I know guys who are depot managers and they make more money but they hunger for the road. I think driving for a rock and roll band would be fun.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment
