    best luck to all!

    Yours is a meaningful post to those who know you but meaningless to those of us who do not. I'd be interested to know more if you care to share it. 1. What kind of a rig did you drive? 2. How long were you with Express-1? 3. What exactly led you to the decision to leave not only your carrier...
