Why I Built This
When I started looking into trucking I found two types of content online: YouTube channels trying to sell me something, and forum posts from 2011. Neither was actually helpful.
After going through CDL school, getting my first OTR job, and surviving the brutal first year that weeds most people out, I figured I'd write down everything I wish I'd known before I started. That's this site.
