Thanx for the advice.
I left England 3 years ago, jumped over to Marten. Better money, more miles.
England is a decent training company, but after a year of low miles, and low $$ I wised up.
Marten is a smaller company, and the drivers are treated much better.

Hows the ankle coming along?

Sounds like you're doing well so KEEP ON TRUCKIN !!!!! Looks like you run I-80 a lot. You must be an expert in wind ! Better gas mileage heading east eh ? Do you hang out with Ryer ? I thought he lived in Gardenerville also. How has gas prices changed your business ?

My ankle is still junk but thanks for asking.
