    Anybody based out of northern Michigan? Say Mackinac south to graying. Might have to make a move that way and wondering about opportunities if any that might be had.

    Xpo logistics, fedex freight and Holland all have barns in Gaylord (so does fedex ground). ABF I believe has one in Grayling.

    That's north southern Michigan, when ever anyone says northern Michigan I think of up in the boonies in Kaweenaw.

    There's Grand Traverse Trucking, Ken something that runs tandem flats, and T.J.s out of Cadillac. Tandem Transport had a terminal in Gaylord at one point, although they said I wasn't in their hiring area when I lived a mile away.
    If you move further south, Grand Rapids area has huge numbers of driving jobs.

    My wife is too, we lived in Michaywe for several years after we got married. The town is struggling right now, but I believe it'll bounce back soon.

    Since I moved to Flint, I've found that "Up North" is not a directions. It's a location.
    And around here it seems "Up North" (for most people) is anything north of US10.
