Are you kidding? My dad drives a semi and has a woman in every state. More than one in some! He's having the time of his life. Just invest in a laptop.

I know somebody that drives a semi. He met someone on-line near his home. He hooks his computer up at the truck stops.

Well, I can't speak for anybody else, but it's clear that the kind of person I would like to meet simply isn't here. Or on any other site I've tried, for that matter, with one exception which occurred many years ago. I would never look for someone on line again....

To each their own. It works for him and them. But since you can only drive for 10 hours a day, it leaves a lot of time for sitting around. I'd invest in one for the entertainment alone. Granted, there is plenty to see if you want to.

ahhh the ten hour rule actually you can drive for 11.
i dont know many guys that run for only 11 hours unless they are working for one of the bigger companys. myself i usually drive for around 16 hours a day, the only time your makeing any money is if the wheels are going around.

I know it. My dad is an owner/operator and it kills me when he gets his pay stubs. But it's worth it, I think, just for all the stuff he gets to see and experience. Plus, once everything is paid for and fixed! he'll be making pretty good money. He's been trying to convince me to partner with him. Teach me to make random comments.

Yep, I know, but I've also known those that are unfortunate enough to have trackers on their trucks so even if they fudge the logs, they still get busted.
