Actually after I drove this unit I drove one that was what they call a "double expando", you blew out both sides once you had it leveled, off the 5th wheel, etc. By the way, we NEVER used grease on the 5th wheel, ran a plate on it.

Inside these are full blown TV production studios, this one was valued around 8 mil with the equipment it had inside. I posted some pictures in the album section of various sets the truck was parked...

"hillbilly modified"... :lol: :lol: :P

 

My husband drove in the end of the 90s, then did something else for over 6 or 7 years and then wanted to go back to driving. He had to do a refresher course, which you can get at most truck driving schools but they are also not cheap. A refresher is shorter than regular CDL. So with your 10 years I doubt they'll hire you just like that; they'll probably see it the same way that you're a 'new' hire or refresher or whatever. I wish you the best of luck!!

 

Well, if you're not picky, I spent 8 yrs off the road and Shelton Trucking just hired me. Watkins Shepard gave me a green light, but I turned it down because they wanted me to stay out 5 weeks at a time. Maverick would have hired me but I couldn't prove my last 2 years of self employement.
These are the ones that considered me:
Shelton
Maverick
Watkins Sheppard
Arrow Trucking

Hope this helps man.

 

Thanks "Pony"

I sent an application to maverick and they said they would call back so I'll see what they have to offer. I'll look at Shelton...
