Hi
I’m planning on going O/O by the end of the year, hopefully. I’m based out of south Florida and plan to run mainly in the SE corridor, power only loads. Running in this area would give me decent home time while still making a decent profit.
I realize this is a very general question, But how likely is this plan to succeed given my location and home time? Would it even be worth it?
What are your experiences running loads in FL, GA, AL, NC etc?
New O/O running in the SE.

Another general question:
Which corridor (NE,SE,NW,SW,MW) have you found to be most profitable, in your experience?
I’m living in a tough spot for trucking in general. However, I’m willing to move where freight is more consistent. -
Home time and decent pay unless your idea of decent is much much less than mine
If I’m going to put on my underwear then the juice has to be worth the squeeze
My thought. Running short in the SE and being home you will feel like you never leave work
