GET ME OUT OF THIS TRUCK

You have been sitting in this cab long enough.

Try it in your browser Questions & feedback

iPhone app in beta now. Coming to the App Store soon.

Park the rig

One tap saves where your truck is, on your phone only. When you're done, Get Me Back gives you directions straight to it.

Staging spots a rig can actually fit

Up to five nearby options: industrial areas with wide streets, big-lot shopping centers, Planet Fitness, Costco or Walmart, and PAID TRUCK PARKING lots you can call. Downtown cores get skipped automatically.

Two adventures that fit your layover

Tell it how long you've got, how you're getting around, and what you're in the mood for: city, food, beer, outdoors, or surprise me. You get a Safe Bet and a Locals Only pick, with every place checked on Google Maps so it's still open.

Get me back

The chips and Budweiser will still be there.

Why this exists

Two of my best friends drive for a living. One runs flatbed. The other pulls a reefer, and hauled cars before that.

I hear it all. The snow, the wind, the black ice, the rain that won't quit. The warehouse that “never got” the appointment. Waiting to get loaded. Waiting to get unloaded. Waiting.

But that's not the part that sticks. What sticks are the stories: a sunrise breaking over the mountains, a sunset that lights up the plains, an ocean that shows up out of nowhere. Lakes, forests, deserts that go on forever. Their photos are unreal.

Here's the thing about layovers: spend them in the cab and they're brutal. Step out into a city you don't know, and that's where the good stuff starts.

That's what this app is for. It won't plan your life. It won't fix the warehouse. But it will get you out of that truck, and point you somewhere worth going.

The rest is up to you.
