A Tesla Semi has already traveled 250,000 miles: here’s what we learned about the electric truck
Tesla Semi has already been “in production” for almost 2 years, but the production has been very limited and one could even argue that it was a “pilot” run until Tesla brings the vehicle to volume production at its new facility under construction in Nevada.

200k Ain’t That Much As An Owner Operator
Take A Look At The Net Pay After Expenses
Take A Look At The Net Pay After Expenses
Right now I’m having a hard time finding local because they all want experience but I’m in the halfway house I can’t do regional or otr so I’m trying not get frustrated
To drive local or LTL (Local To Local), companies usually want a minimum of one year driving experience.
Cuz you are new, you are not gonna get the sweet job you want. Like all professions you gotta start at the bottom and pay your dues.
Some suggestions….
• Apply for school bus driver. Get your passenger endorsement before applying.
• Apply for local commuter bus driver, Get your passenger endorsement before applying.
• Join a local Teamster Union that has driver positions.
• Ask local guys you see about getting on to their job. 100% chance if they can hook you up, you will be assigned to drive with a trainer for a minimal of one year. After a year they will test you out and sign you off to drive on your own.
• If you live near oil fields, see about applying with them. Be warned cuz you are new/inexpereinced, they will screw you over on pay, work hours and treat you like a slave. It’s not about that, it’s getting the year experience/time.
• If you live near agriculture, apply with them, again cuz you are new, they will screw you over. Again, it’s about getting time.
• Go to a local “Labor Ready” temp agency or check out the local unemployment office. They usually can find you something….again, it ain’t gonna be something you want to do…but you need to build up time.
I’m in Nashville so I’ll check out all those
Also.
• Check out any Mom & Pop truck stops in the area. They usually have a Load/Job board in there with someone or a local company looking for inexperienced drivers. Again, high chance it will be low pay, lousy hours, but you getting experience. Do a decent job they might hire you full time and treat you better.
• Hang around local diesel fuel islands like Pacific Pride. Local guys normally fuel there. Ask around.
• You will see hopper trucks and dump trucks cruising around town. Those hopper trucks usually are pulled by owner operators. Talk to them and see if someone will hire you as an apprentice/trainee. Again, pay, hours will suck.
• Those containers are usually pulled by owner/operators. You can ask them also if they will hire you on or refer you to someone.
Like any job, you gotta dust off your hustle skills to get shit.
It’s the American Way.

They denied me working with western express even though I’m cleared
So it’s back to the drawing board, so many places don’t wanna hire because I’m in a halfway house
It’s not even the felony that’s causing problems

6 Tips! Putting Chains On A Semi Tire
Tip 7 - You put chains on to get out of trouble, not to get into trouble.
DOT calls for the Chain Law, park the truck, close the curtains and turn on the bunk heater and wait for the storm to pass and for the plows to clear the road of snow/ice.
