Driving a truck requires having as much going for you as possible.

I did a temporary stint as a distribution supervisor in Chicago for about 8 drivers, Chicago teamsters. I had a few problems, including one grievance, but the biggest headache was the maintenance bills. I could not believe the cost of maintenance on the trucks.

The higher the bill, the higher my blood pressure.

Used too getting a truck into California was a major undertaking. They inspected then did it some more at their scale houses and it was mandatory. I don't know how they are now. My truck was a company lease from Ryder so they had the maintenance on it. My father in law at that time was a local Ryder Mechanic :>}
