Find CDL drivers and Co-Pilots in the state where you actually reset. From Texas triangle runs to I-80 transcontinental hauls through Wyoming, HighwaySoul filters singles by your home base - not by some random ten-mile radius from a truck stop. Pick your state, see who is online, send the first wave.
Trucker dating by state works better than generic distance filters because the U.S. trucking workforce moves by lane, not by zip. A driver based in Little Rock, AR runs Memphis, Dallas, and Nashville every week - a Tinder radius around their home address misses every single one of those cities. HighwaySoul lets you filter by your home state and the lanes you cover, so the match still makes sense when you are 600 miles from the cab door.
The U.S. has 3.54 million professional truck drivers (BLS, 2022), and most of them call one of 11 states home: Texas alone employs more than 230,000 CDL drivers, California another 200,000+, and the I-80 corridor through Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, and Wyoming carries roughly 30% of national freight. If you live and run in one of those states, you are not looking for someone in a different time zone - you are looking for someone whose Friday night could actually overlap with yours.
That is why our state hubs exist. Each page below pulls drivers and Co-Pilots with that state listed as a home base, shows you the major interstates and freight hubs covered, and links straight to the city pages where the truck stops actually fill up. Start with your state. Drill into your city. Send the wave before you roll out.
Three reasons state-based matching beats generic radius filters for anyone who drives for a living.
A Texas-based driver running I-10 and I-20 hits Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, El Paso, and Shreveport in a typical week. State-based search captures every one of those reset points. A 25-mile radius from home zip captures none.
Most OTR drivers get home one weekend per month and most regional drivers get home every Friday. When both partners share a home state, those rare nights actually line up - no flying across the country to make a Saturday dinner work.
A Georgia "y'all" lands different than a Nebraska handshake. State pages on HighwaySoul let you find people whose accent, hobbies, and weekend rhythm already match yours - fewer awkward translations, faster real connections.

"I switched my home base from Texas to Arkansas when I joined Hunt. Updated my state on HighwaySoul, had three real conversations the same week. State filter is the whole game." - Hank M., owner-operator, I-40 corridor
