I'm Blake. Currently in college for civil engineering, did three semesters of mechanical engineering at VCU and figured out it wasn't for me so I'm trying something that will get me outside some. I have been a volunteer firefighter for almost 5 years as well. I'll do just about anything to make money but enjoy cutting and splitting firewood the most.

It would be fun, but if after a while I get tired, I can get a job here local. Truck drivers are in high demand here.

I'm Abe and I'm a truckoholic
I am a Custom welder and Fabricator. I do only exotic alloys now. Been in this field for a tad over 20 yrs. I would show some stuff but it literally is top secret. No joke. But it's fun and creative.

Hey guys! I am Josh, 31 years old, self employed in construction, small family business my dad started 35 years ago and now I run it. We do lots of roofing, windows, doors, build garages, additions, and some kitchen/bath remodels. I also do Vortex Spray in Bedliners and Protective Coatings as a side business.
I would REALLY like to get into trucking/hauling. Not OTR but hauling vehicles, equipment and stuff like that locally or within the state, its a work in progess!!
Been married for 8 1/2 years and have a 4 month old daughter.
Been a Ford guy my whole life, but I am not a hater of other makes, I respect them all, just prefer my Fords.
Looking forward to getting to know everybody!
