A Hot Babe Saying She Loves You? Think Again.
Have you ever been curious? Have you ever wondered who your truck driving hubby talks to while he is out on the road? For those of you who have gotten bitten by that curiosity bug and taken a look at his list of FaceBook friends and have seen several really gorgeous hot looking model types, you might be surprised to learn a few things about those [...]
The Lion Roars
We all wonder what the next day will bring us; will it be easy, will it be hard, will we welcome the change or run from it in fear and disillusion. Being the wife of a trucker I have learned how to deal with these issues alone. I have come to accept, but not believe, that I am part of a second-class citizenship. I have learned how to [...]
Know You Are Not Alone!
It is nice to wake up in the morning, roll over, and see your spouse laying there beside you. Sometimes they frustrate you, but just having them there brings peace to your soul. When you are a trucker’s spouse, you relish those days and hold them close to your heart except for when you are startled there is actually someone else in [...]
Perspective is Everything
Oftentimes in life we get caught up in the drama of what is occurring around us and we lose sight of our purpose and what we are meant to do. We become immersed in our own story; we feel like we are drowning, suffocating, and cannot get enough air to make it through the next moment, let alone the day. Yet, it is just a story. It may [...]
My Rambling Thoughts
When faced with the prospect of one’s loved one becoming a truck driver, we tend to wonder what is in store for us. We hear about drivers being gone on the road, but what does that really mean?

After some in depth thought into my purpose for this magazine and what I choose to accomplish with it, I will be doing some restructuring of the contents. As many of you know, there are plenty of magazines online [...]
What is Happening to America?
Skyrocketing fuel costs, governments wanting to add more regulation to an already over regulated industry, drivers becoming fed up with being cheated by trucking companies out of money rightly earned creating class action lawsuits and more and more drivers being hurt on the road by a desperate citizenry in a failing economy; did you ever think [...]
Educate and Push for Enlightenment
I was cruising through the news and I became angry at the lack of respect that is shown to truck drivers everywhere. Not only with them being blamed for every accident on the road, but with the killings and the disregard for their safety. I am an avid supporter of our military without question. They stand up for our freedom and put themselves [...]
“Super Trucker” or Professional: Which one are you?
Super Trucker; one would think this would be a great thing to be, thinking this driver is one of expertise and finesse, abiding by all the rules and helping those in need. The truth is a Super Trucker is none of those things. As depicted in Urban Dictionary, a Super Trucker is: A know-it-all Daffy Duck trucker who tries to impress dispatch, who [...]
Snow and Ice Removal – Laws to Make Money
With all of these winter storms, stories of ice falling off big rigs and injuring people, and the outrage over it, the trucking industry really needs to step up to the plate and be proactive. After doing some research into this, the machines I found were the Robot 2000 which removes soft and hard snow from the trailers. While this would be a [...]
