HOW I STARTED TRUCKING

[@edwardkirkland686]

Cool story Nick! I was a Lineman for 35 years been retired for two I’ve always love trucks a friend of mine has a small trucking company here in Florida “ just went through a hurricane “ he hauls beer from Albany Ga. to Ft. Myers and Pompano I go with him from time to time and drive when one of his drivers is off. Lot more to it than people realize. Love the channel! Keep the coal rolling bro!

[@RDC_Autosports]

i use to haul that beer for bruce dewey years ago, from miller, a company S&S bought his trailers and the rout

[@NickWeber112]

Oh nice!! That’s super cool! Thanks Edward and will do😎🤘🏻

[@sauciertransport]

The line work field is how I got into trucking as well! Got my class a cdls in lineman school and loved driving so much I quit that and started hauling heavy equipment.

[@weepweep2225]

@@sauciertransport I’m a Journeyman Lineman but have really wanted to do the trucking gig, just been curious on retirement and insurance on how to go about it 🤷. Love being behind the wheel of a big rig though

[@cowboykody6775]

I started in the fields when I was 12yo with a '46 Chevy 1 1/2 ton, which we still have yet. Went on the road between our farms at 14yo, got my license at 16yo, started driving school bus at 18, drove milk semi at 19, bought my 1st truck at 23.

[@NickWeber112]

Oh nice! That’s so cool! That’s such a young age to start trucking!😎🙏

Crazy small world dude. I worked w Ridge at a lawn care company in Sioux Falls, he’s a great dude. Glad ur loving the life style. Stay safe man

[@williambillwaynerobertson930]

Great life lessons Nick, I started at 16 I couldn't drive for hire so I was working for a second cousin bought a 78 IH 4300 hood I loved that truck. Keep up the great work bro be safe.🤙🇺🇸🤙

A Beautiful Rig!! My Family is out of N. Louisiana had a logging Co. I used to drive for them without a CDL at 14yrs old. I was just running logs out to the road & handing it over. Then I got laid off as an Electrician Helper many years later & while on Unemployment I gotta call asking if I'd like to become a Trucker? I said, heck yeah but couldn't afford training. My local College had a 10 month CDL Credited Course fully paid through a Federal Grant for those on Unemployment. Yeah, it was long time training but well worth it. Then I started with Crete & left because my buddy had a W900 Cherry Red & a Cherry Red 389 Long Nose Pete. He asked if I wanted to make some real money by running his Pete up in the Dakota's from SE Texas area. I said yeah baby! Just as I was well over a million miles with no Violations, citations or shutdowns. I had a Stroke that put me into SSI/DI Retirement. Love watching these vids seeing the roads I used to run. Long way from S. Houston 🤟 If I could drive now? I'd be back up there or for Walmart with no headaches & $110k a year. All Companies are basically begging for clean record highly experienced drivers now days

[@christophersanders5007]

I got into OTR driving by being a heavy duty diesel mechanic for the Government. When you work for the Government you are exempt from having a CDL as a diesel mechanic. After about 7-years of working for the Government I got laid off. When I applied for other diesel mechanic jobs they all said I have to have a CDL. I went to the unemployment state office, and got the state to pay for me to go to a truck driving school to get my CDL. By the way, I saw your rig at Art's car show.
