    I'm currently doing non-CDL courier work in MA/CT/NH with lots of trips up and down 93 and 95 plus in-town Boston. It is a challenge, like advanced yoga.

    Point taken. Different stokes for different folks. I preferred a snow covered goat trail in the woods hauling logs. :happy7:

    Where I grew up in Tennessee, my neighbor and his father owned a saw mill. They stayed busy year round and snow & ice didn't slow them down. Log trucks rolling in!

    If you do get your cdl paid for by a company. Do your research as you will more than likely be under a contract until it's paid off.
