Is that the same time zone as to Virginia Beach or east region time zone?

We're one hour later that Virginia Beach. Knoxville is in the same time zone as VB.

Well, I did called that trucking job in Arkansas, but said they will call me back if they get an offer. So, I'm still making more preparations. How's the weather forecast like this week? Also, How much is the gas prices at the moment? Sorry about asking too many questions.

It just finished raining (Nashville area). Not much though, small shower and now the sun is out. I just got gas today for 2.33 gal at Kangaroo.

Still haven't got no feedbacks about the destination I'm heading, but I'll keep everyone posted. For the meantime, about the hotels and motels mention on first page, Which one would you consider that is not too expensive and easier to get back on the interstate I-40W? If by any chance, could anyone give me an average price on a night stay?

If you're referring to the ones I mentioned, the Super 8 is probably the cheapest. I've never stayed there (since I live in the general area and don't have a wife to throw me out of the house), but it's probably okay just as a place to sleep overnight. Obviously, it's not the MGM Grand. I would guess a night there would run $65 or $75. You can check rates on websites like TripAdvisor; it would also have mini reviews of motels, but I find them hit and miss (four people will give someplace a glowing review, three people will call the same place the worst place they've ever stayed this side of Calcutta).
All of the ones I mentioned are literally within sight of the ramps to I-40, so getting on and off shouldn't be much of a problem.

Thanks for your all of your help, still haven't got no feedbacks from the trucking business I'm trying to get into. So far, I've been calling them every week since, I've put in my application there. By the way, I'm trying to get into PAM Transport, based in Tontitown, AR. If by any chance, do you know if there is a terminal in Tennessee? Their website couldn't give me enough information. Also, is there any major trucking business in Tennessee or in Nashville that you could think of?? Thanks again.

It's been awhile, updating. Recently, I had just moved back home to Pittsburgh, PA. All I can say is, It feels great and relief. Also, starting new jobs possible this coming week. Now, I'm making preparations for June 2010. For getting my life back together and enjoying the little moments, and proceeding my career as a truck driver (18 wheeler) and thinking about going to school for Certified Auto Body Specialists. So, beyond that. what's new with everyone since I've been away?
