Thinking about buying a cargo van Ive been thinking about buying a cargo van and having somebody else drive it. I havent driven cargo vans before and was curious if anybody else on here drives them and has a nice company to work for. I have only driven strictly tractor trailer. I might try cargo van just so I can stop at some of the beautiful places along my routes lol.

You could also do expedite work in a strait truck if you wanted, it pays a lot better than cargo van does and you can still get into places easier than with a tractor trailer. The down side with that kind of work is that you don't see home very often.
