Hello Senior Trucker
No it does'nt mean CA . Thats a Arabic name that means WHITE LION in english. I have been in Baghdad, Iraq going on my 4th year over here now. The locals started calling me that because of my apearance. I have my own equipment in the States and that is where most of my effort and money has been going. My Equipment has been sitting since I came over here waiting for me to return. This engine build that I'm doing just after christmas in Atlanta will be the last thing before I quit n come home. I'LL be quiting this in earl April so I am trying to get things in line for next year. I understand that I can do my own authority but it would be a lot harder to do on my own from over here so thats why I'm probably going to pay OOIDA to do it. I have been talking with several outfits here recently and Bennit Trans out of Georgia is looking for people with there own multi axle equip that can or do have Gov clearance to do Oversize . They say it's BIG money ??? But I have allways been leased to other outfits and don't like haveing to worry about their needless rules n such ?? Haveing to explain things to them that are non of their bussiness ??? So since I have the time n money I'd like to try to be independent for once ??? I know it seems like a lot of stupid questions (especially for a 28 yr cross country OO ) but I'm just trying to understand how things are back there these days and what is the best thing to do ??
Thanks for all of your input !!!
