  • I always wanted to be a truck driver and at age 55 decided to look on KZhead to find inspiration! You could probably make money giving women who are looking for a career in trucking a true truck-life experience. Take em' on the road for a few day haul and show them the ropes. Women power! There really is good money to be made and I also feel very peaceful when driving long distances. It is peaceful.

  • my dad drove a truck for 17 years. I went with him about 9 times starting with a trip after high school graduation in 1997 and last trip was 2001. I loved it. I miss him driving. saw some women driving trucks. my favorite show was ice road truckers. I loved watching Lisa Kelley on there. she put up with guys saying she didn't need to be driving but she never let it stop her.

  • That's so awesome to start so young, and it helps a lot when you know people already in the industry who can answer any delima questions. I used to get those same "you're a driver" questions alot too, as with flirts. But I had absolutely no interest in dating a driver, and never had! But it was nice to see the country as a solo driver, and now I don't have to worry about getting lost... 😊
