Default How much truck driving experience do you have

To get an idea of how many of you have enough experience to be giving others advice when it comes to driving an 18 wheeler Im just curious as to how MUCH DRIVING EXPERIENCE you have.

Im not saying giving advice is bad I'm just thinking of it in terms of reliable advice.

1983 is when I started and all my trips were in cab overs without power steering, all my backing was blindside only and all my hills that I had to pull were uphill both ways with a Cummins 235 :shock:
