As I mentioned before, I am going to start having drivers share their views on trucking. I’m proud to introduce Michael as my first driver here on One Girl Trucking. I hope you enjoy him and his views on trucking as much as I have! How many years have you been trucking? I’m starting my [...]

Just east of Tucumcari New Mexico the weather went to heck… The snow was heavy and wet, and although not fun to drive in, beautiful to look at. Change. 150 miles or so and the weather had improved greatly. I slept in Jamestown New Mexico and when I got up around 1 am to head [...]
