I feel great about doing so as I am no longer qualified in my opinion to operate either kind of vehicle. I am fine in a car or pickup truck. There comes a time when you must be responsible enough to do the correct thing without being pushed to do so. The relief is enormous. I just know someone would call me to drive their tractor trailer for them one day and I would not be able to resist. I don't want to hurt anyone and with that CDL license I could have hurt many from being greedy. A person must know their limitations.
A brave, wise, and difficult decision. I salute you, sir.
