This was requested quite some time back, but we felt it was a good idea to wait until the membership grew some. Now that we have a couple women registered here, we feel it is now time to add this forum.

And just so everyone knows, the initial plan here is to keep this open for both male and female drivers to interact within this forum. We mainly want to have a place where issues related more specifically to women drivers are kept in a specific location so it is easier for others to reference.

As long as everything can remain civil, we will keep it this way.

Hey Ladies!
Happy to see you have a forum, pretty cool way to discuss stuff!
In life I have come to the conclusion that women ARE the supreme being, if you have overcome all the 'ol attitudes you hear from many male truck drivers and have yourself become a successful truck driver. Well, I want to be the first to offer my congratulations, may you prosper, be safe, and be happy, and if we meet I am buying the coffee.
