Say What?
Dustin Link, 24, Boyceville, WI
Professional driving experience: 6 years
“I just try to get home as much as possible. My fiancé and I, we both have Harleys, so we like to go riding our Harleys as often as we can. That’s about it.”
Mike Roberts, 48, Oklahoma City, OK
Professional driving experience: 20 years
“Rest. That’s about all you can do. You’re so worn out when you get home, all you want to do is lay on the coach. It’s just like jet lag, only it’s all the time. If you’re trying to make a living, your hobby is driving a truck. It’s like they say, it’s a 24/7 job. It is your lifestyle.”
Ken Sargent, 52, Owensboro, KY
Professional driving experience: 32 years
“I like to go hunting, mostly for rabbits. I have six beagles. I’m not really interested in killing anything. I don’t want to bother anyone. I just like to run the beagles and have some fun.”
Lorinda Fletcher, 39, Mount Vernon, KY
Professional driving experience: 5 years
“Spend time with the family and friends I never get to see. I also like to work on home improvements with my husband.”
James Gibson, 51, Louisville, KY

“Fishing. I carry my poles with me. It doesn’t matter where I am. One day I had a layover in Mobile, AL, and I went fishing in the Gulf of Mexico. It was so nice. I didn’t catch anything. I was just throwing a line in the water, but it was great. This old-timer told me to go across the street to the bait shop and get some shrimp. Still didn’t catch a thing. Ocean. Lake. Stream. Doesn’t matter. I have a catfish pole and a bass pole. Fishing’s my favorite pastime. I try to park anywhere where there’s some water.”
