I drive 110 miles round-trip everyday to work but its almost all interstate and takes 55ish minutes. I'll tell you it's all I want if i wasn't making very good money and had good seniority and my job I would either be looking for a new job or house lol
Is it possible

I’d look at Estes as a extraboard driver. I would have stayed at Estes if the chance to go from the bottom of the LH board to the top at a brand new terminal hadn't come along. I have about the same commute as Cardfan89.

ABF does that, Estes has a specific job classification for that, and many others have a certain number of linehaul drivers running that way at all times. Some people see it as the price of admission for a rookie before they can get enough seniority for a decent run, and others do it because they might be more likely to run longer miles or they have a long commute like yourself.McUzi, Speed_Drums and motocross25 Thank this. -
80 miles away would be too far with how my company does it's linehaul atleast at my location. each terminal is different.

I don't know much about the LTL trucking side. Trying to educate myself. -
I'll say this: I went from a 55 mile commute to a 1 mile commute and my quality of life is much better. Even my weekends are much better because I'm not exhausted by saturday morning when I call it a week. I get a lot more stuff done on the weekend nowadays.
