EP39: I Wouldn't Trade it for Anything with Hal B. Faris
As the saying goes, it takes 10,000 hours to master a particular skill. Well, if that’s the case, our guest today became a master trucker back in the Eighties! Hal B. Faris has been on the road for 40 years. Over the last four decades behind the wheel, Hal has gained the kind of experience you can’t learn from a course or a book. On today’s episode, Hal talks about the incredible advances that have been made in the industry over his career and shares valuable advice about topics like safety and planning. His wisdom and expertise permeate our conversation, which culminates in him saying that he wouldn’t trade driveaway trucking for anything. Coming from a 40-year vet, we think that’s a pretty big deal. Join us as we welcome Hal B. Faris to the show on this episode of the #SixFigureTrucker.
