Biggest Thing

What's the biggest thing you DISLIKE about trucking? I would love to know the hardships and drawbacks. My rose colored glasses need adjusting

Trucks break down and leave you sitting in a hotel room for a week bored off your a$$. Yup, that's me. I hate this part.

Mine would have to be the impatient, always in a hurry, other drivers on the road - not usually the truck drivers though.

Those are good ones too, but you asked for the thing we dislike the most.

I realized today that I have ZERO tolerance for 4 wheelers that drive under the speed limit when conditions are perfect. :evil:

That is why when I turn 18 I'm gonna be working at the Peterbilt dealership working on trucks and picking them up and delivering them to the dealer. I rather work on them over drive them but I love to drive them as well so I get the best of both worlds! 8)
