well where to start, first of all ive been coming to cad for apprixomately 2 years now reading anything and everything possiable about what you exsperinced drivers have to say . So i want to thank you all for the knowledge on the good and the bad so i woudnt be so blind sided on how the industry has changed so much,thanx. keep up the good work!!. Now a little about me. I ran 48 state from 1986 to 1991. I came off the road to raise my son and i totally got out of trucking and missed it so much. Their wasnt a day that went bye or a truck that passed me,that all i could say is one these days ill be back out their again. Well that day is finaly HERE!!!! I start orentation in apprioxmately 3 weeks i have some loose ends to tie up before i go. The good thing is i got into a small company that runs about 150 or so trucks. After listening to all the poeple here on cad i didnt want to go with the bigger trucking companys. So once again thankyou all, be safe and ill see you on the BIG ROAD YEAH!!!!!!!

I have/am getting a lot of good info here too. Glad you have the chance to return to what you love. Good luck!
