A Really Big Load
Yes, I drive a big truck and tote around a lot of cargo from time to time... but not like this! I ran across this crew on the way from Laredo to El Paso this morning. They are taking that huge dump truck part down to someplace in Mexico.
If you are looking for an excellent school to teach you how to drive a big rig, you should consider Crowder College in Neosho, Missouri. I did my training there and the instruction is first rate. If you are looking for a trucking company, you might look into the deal that Con-Way Truckload has with Crowder for training. Call Christine Harwick at 800-641-4747 and tell her where you heard about them!
