Growing up with those Haines and Kibblehouse r-series Macks driving around makes a boy dream of becoming a Trucker :)

…and the sound.

There's just something about the color green and Macks that go well together. :)

Do you make it up to Middletown?

MY question is why trucking? What is the reason why you are interested in Trucking? or CDL driving? If that interest is strong enough maybe you should consider it as a new career.

The biggest hurdle is 2 months is not enough time to make your name known who you drive with. You got to invest time, work it, get noticed and get the type route/pay you want. I just don't see the point as a summer job, unless maybe Farm work.

Hello,

I currently have a full time job, with summers off; and I am looking for an additional career that can I can turn to during summer months. So I have two questions for the forum. 1 - is this idea worthwhile? and 2 - would a company pay for my CDL training if I commit to summer work (even for several years of summers)?

Thanks for your advice!

Glad to see you progressing! If you ever get out to the Oaks Hub, LMK! My run goes right by there.

I should clarify that the pic is not mine. It's just an example of what I saw. The Autocar I saw, is probably a Farm Truck. So it's a good chance I'll see it again along my route. I'll try to get pic of it then. :)

forgot pic.....

G-town BTW the AutoCar I texted you about and saw was a DC9964. I was driving, I couldn't get a photo. Though, here's a pic of another Autocar with similar grill.

The cardlock pumps our local school buses go to were out of DEF for almost a week in October. fun times.

Congrats on move to Tax Free Delaware and the new Gig.

Meanwhile, I took a "B"aby step. I'm running a school bus route for Custer's. Once my divorce is over and things settled, I'll be going after my A.
