Driving for 44 years, driving in the early 80's and 90's was actually fun, but, between the population explosion and the untrained foreigners and, so called school trained rookies, and DOT, and cell phone users, it's not fun anymore, it's a challenge

Yep I cut my teeth on my father's international cabover steering wheel when my father took me with him hauling cattle.and found out young I was hooked.and started driving in 1981 on my own on the farm driving grain trucks and farm equipment went into the navy came home and drove from them till now. trucking has gone to hell all that time.from good back in the eighties and gone to hell right up to 2024 and don't think it's going to get any better.

Thanks for bringing back this memory. My dad and an older brother taught me how to drive truck in 1975 after I graduated highschool. Things were different back then. It's definitely not the same. Nobody respects truck drivers like they used to.

I was on the way to Baton Rouge , Louisiana when the radio station first played this song ! I had been up since early that morning , and I really wasn't in any fit condition to be wrestling 75 feet of truck down the interstate . When that song started, I was like an adrenaline shot ! I was wide awake , and felt ready to go another 12 hours ! 😀

A HUGE "Thank You" to all of my brothers and sisters out on the road. This country could not run with out you. I was out there for 10 years as a solo female. Saw a lot of good and bad. Caught a lot of flak from "super truckers" but also had a lot of great interactions with other drivers. Made a lot of friends....and told a lot of "trucker stories"! I miss all of y'all! Stay safe and Keep Rollin"!!! from Lady Dreamer

My dad started driving after coming home from Vietnam taught me how to drive a big rig when I was 14. Once you get that diesel fuel in your veins you don't get rid of it. Running the roads of this beautiful country isn't a job it's a lifestyle most of this newer generation of drivers take no pride in driving it's just a job to them. My dad retired in 2015 after 40 years on the road. I came off the road last year due to health issues but still think about every day.
