If you have ever wondered what it was like to be a truck driver, hauling loads up and down the highway. If you have ever wanted to do this and didn't want to quit your job and do it for real, then Trukz - A trucking simulation game is for you. I would bet it to be the best game about truck driving I have ever seen.
There are games out for truck driving, but not simulated truck driving. Where you have to actually pretend to purchase, your truck, CB radio, GPS unit, tools, tires, wheels, fuel...

Has any one of you ever wanted to be a truck driver before?
I found a website that allows you to become a truck driver, in a game.

It is almost, I would say about 75% as close to being real as it could get without actually doing it.
It kinda deals more with being an owner operator, who works for a trucking company, or who can go out on his/her own.

My wife laughs at me, because I am gone all week long and now when I get home I get on here and check the game...

Sorry, but I have been very busy with work. Spring and summer and up through Thanksgiving are the busy season for my company.

I am home now on a mandatory non- paid week's vacation, and enjoying it by the minute.

I kinda gotta a little unruley with a dispatcher and refused to do what he said to me, and they said I could stay home for a week.

Anyway, all is well and I hope all are doing great!

Have a good one, take care!:ahand_sos:

I know it has been sometime since I last updated this blog.
Well lot's has changed since the last entry..

We moved....again but this time into a house we are planning on buying later.
I am yet at another job, since my last entry...This one is pretty cool though.
I now pull a pneumatic bulk tanker, hauling lime,cement,fly ash, and slag. I deliver to concrete company's and energy plants and road construction jobs throughout Ohio, Indiana, and Michigan also into Pennsylvania....

LOL, as the title says yes I have survived my first week back as a OTR truck driver.
I had a short week, as I left on Monday and returned home just a few hours ago.
But all in all it was pretty uneventful. I loaded Monday and delivered Tuesday in Munster,IN. then reloaded Tuesday and delivered Wed. in Walton,KY.
I then reloaded Wed. and delivered in Chicago,IL Wed. and then I loaded in Libertyville,IL on Thursday and delivered this morning in Florence,KY.

I am loaded...
