Mark your calendars: May 12–14, 2026.

And for couples who've made the switch, the quality of that living space changes everything a

You and your partner have been talking about it for a while. The open road. The freedom. The idea of building something together instead of punching the clock for someone else. But every time you get close to pulling the trigger on team trucking, the same questions stop you cold: Do you need years of experience? What kind of CDL do you need? What does a typical week actually look like? And is it really possible to make a good living doing this? The answer to that last questio
