Funny...Wayne has NO idea WHAT is involved in being a Truck Driver. $50,000 is **** wages, considering you have to feed yourself while out on the road. That is deducted off the top line, leaving you **** all really. Truck Companies DONT give a **** if you have a Family, they just want the **** going down the road. He should find himself a job.. |

The truck driver has to feed himself each day, wether he is driving or watching Oprah. |

Do you seriously not understand the difference in dollars, buying prepared food on the road, or cooking your own at home? When we go racing, we easily save $50 bucks a day by brown bagging compared to other teams... It's a lot different working and living on the road and trying to eat well, than it is stuffing in carbs on vacation or on a long weekend... |

You do not go out to the 3 star eateries. |

I am not talking about a hotdog at 7-11, I am talking about eating food that will keep you going... |

I am not talking about a hotdog at 7-11, I am talking about eating food that will keep you going... Just get a pack of hot-dogs and a can of peas. You don't need to heat them up you just need to open the package and eat them. Almost all the bigger truck stops, Flying J, Loves, TransAmerica, etc., have very reasonable restaurants therein. We stop at them very often when traveling. I've never had bad food, and the prices are usually in the $10 range. Most of them also allow RV parking in the front parking lot. We've found them quiet, flat, and handy. Of course, there are no hook ups, but the toilets are decent and, for a small fee, one can rent a very nice shower room with lots of towels. -- John H. Hope you're having a great day! |

You do not go out to the 3 star eateries. Traveling for business and driving a long-haul truck on the interstates doesn't mean you eat at the same places. The truck drivers are pretty much limited to eating at truck stops, where their rigs can be parked, fueled, accommodated. Some truck stops offer a wide variety of food and some have that food at decent prices but even so, eating three hots a day while driving a big rig isn't inexpensive. If you are driving your car, you can easily get off the interstate and find the kind of place you'd prefer to eat that will accommodate you and your car. On the interstates around here, "Cracker Barrel" restaurants seem very popular at all three meal times, but you rarely see the big truck rigs in their parking lots because those lots are not built to handle those sorts of vehicles. A decent meal at Cracker Barrel runs $10-$12, easily. A similar meal at a truck stop likely is more expensive. |
