Hello Everyone!!! I'm Lucinda I am the owner of ClassADrivers.com and just happen to be married to "The Man, ClassA" I finally decided to get my own identity and join in on all the fun!! :sauer007:
I come from a trucking family. My father is a retired trucker, my brother, brother-in-law and uncle are all truckers, just to name a few.

I have over 5 years of recruiting and qualifications experience with one of the major carriers out there (Landstar) Jeff and I started ClassADrivers.com in October 2000 and are still growing strong. Thanks to all of you!!!!!!

I look forward to chatting with you all and will help answer any questions that I can. I also look forward to hearing your comments and concerns.

There is just something about trucking and once you get just a drop of it in your blood,....you are doomed!!!!! The industry is having a rough time right now but lets hope things turn around!!!!!!!

Hey my name is Jucko,
I'm in Va. and have been driving for a while. I have my very own Chicken Truck :aktion060.gif: and am trying to get further into the business. Hopefully someday I will be financially stable, and get to drive my truck up and down the road for entertainment purposes only. I look forward to reading the B Boards here, and hearing the advice/complaints/questions. Hopefully I can get some help here with some of my ?'s when I post them, and i'll try to help out with anyone else's...at least I can put my two cents in...

Jucko,


Thanks for taking the time to tell us about yourself. I have seen several of your posts. I appreciate you taking the time to post and respond to others on this board. Seems like we have a real good group of people on this board. Welcome to the forums. Just so you know, we have started another board like this one on our other web site at http://www.owneroperatorjob.com and the link for it is http://www.owneroperatorjob.com/cgi-.../ikonboard.cgi

Thought you might be interested since most of your postings have been OO related.

Hi folks....I also stumbled into this web site and decided to register today also. I'm currently attending NTTS (National Tractor Trailer School) in Liverpool, N.Y. I live in Baldwinsville, N.Y. which is near by. I have a wife (we've been married for 23 years) and a little girl (2 1/2) which is very cute. I'm currently researching companies and trying to decide who will give me "the best deal" :aktion041:
Nice meeting everyone!!!

Hello everyone, My husband is a new otr driver and we've had alot of problems with his company so I came here and read some of the posts and its really been a big help for him to hear of what others are going through. After coming back several times I decided to join and I'm really impressed with the friendliness. I'm 27 and we currently live in GA but, Alabama is my home. It's nice to meet you all and this is a great website.

hello sweet_lily, what company does your husband work for if i may ask,and how long has he been driving. maybe he could give us some good advise on what to and not to do.

Hi Heavenbound, my husband has been driving for Covenant and last night we turned the truck and the keys back in to them. We were told that he was the second person within a 30 minute period. He hasn't been driving long just started in Feb of this year and he turned down offers of more money because Covenant was suppose to be a family-oriented and christian based company. Needless to say we've had our fill of them and it was a relief to finally be finished with them. I'm afraid we're both just getting into the trucking industry but, I'll help in anyway I can. :engel002:

Just what in the name of everything unholy is going on here?

I go away for a while and the forum has become a lovelorn column :0 :0 :0

Sounds like a one night stand gone wrong and what about Dwaynes wife, do you think she would have something to say about it!

:aktion066.gif: Hello there HeavenBound. I just signed on today, this is my first message/reply to this forum. Was involved with another forum a year ago but gave it up when I started trucking. I now have a link from laptop to cell and can use my free night and weekend minutes freely.

Anyway, wanted to say I like your user name, picture, and comment at end of your messages.

[Big Momma CAD]

Welcome HoneyBee,

Hope you can find a new home on this forum. We try to keep things straight and clean here. We generally have no problems doing so either. Hopefully you will make many new friends here.

Heavenbound is a great guy and we are very happy to have him around. I think you will find that all of our members are great people. The members are what make a board great.

[Honey Bee]

:aktion066.gif: Thank you Big Mama, you are one classy gal if this is your photo. LOL

I do like the sites that "keep it clean". I don't have the CB on except if I need help or am at a PU/Del site for this reason.

I don't know how often I will get on, depends on my schedule and how slepy I am after 9 pm. But weekends also have free time and usually spend lots of time online then (use cell phone as modem for laptop).

The forum I was part of a year ago got kinda sassy and picky at times. Altho as a new female driver the women's conversations were a BIG help.

Catch ya later. LB

My Hubby (CAD) got this photo for me. He says that is the way he sees me. HAHAHA He lives in his own little dream world. That is ok because he doesn't look like Captain America either.

HI EVERYBODY!!!!
I found the site while looking for some local trucking co's. My name is Becca and I've been lurking in the shadows for 3-4 days now. I posted a message in the "families" section before I actually locate this spot.
Hubby is going back OTR and since our kids are grown, I'm going with him for the first time in our 18+ years on and off together. Since I am the :aktion057: geek, it was left to me to find some companies. I filled out his application via this site and am now waiting for the offers to come through. He hasn't been OTR in 8+ years so we could be waiting for a while. In the meantime I plan to keep my eyes open for him.
I told him that I would do all of the leg work now to help get him a co. to drive for because he will be doing the work until I get my CDL. (scary thought but he is going to teach me :0 )
Great to find a site that keeps those on the road close and in touch with others. Once we start making some decent money I will be getting a laptop and have satellite service and I can be online on the road which will make my family very happy.
We currently reside in Granbury, Texas and are looking to go to all 48 and back again. Home time isn't a big issue as I said before the kids are grown and gone. Luckily for the internet I can have daily pix of our granddaughter, thanks to me teaching my mother how to scan and send. haha.
Looking forward to a lasting friendship with others in this line of work as I do believe hubby and I will be driving for years to come. Keep your fingers crossed for us as we will probably need it.
Keeping it all together,
Becca
