The only way to control the amount of down time and the location of down time is to become an O/O where you are selecting your own loads, ie, Landstar.

where do you live now?

Blackadder47, thanks, I will look into them.
bigtruck360, also thanks and I like what you said about being a name not a number, that's hard to find these days. How are their trucks? And I konw what you mean about being out that long, that's what made me go local back when my kid was young and I was married. Now, with my new lifestyle status so to speak, this should be no problem.
Everett, you nailed it. This is EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Getting to do/see things you might not get the chance to do otherwise. Your battleship senario is awesome, perfect example. I got no problem running and busting my ###, then taking a break somewhere random to recharge my soul. I used to do it when I would run 48's into manhatten twice a week for Steelcase. All no touch so once I parked it, it was sleep or sightsee until they were done. Took the wife a few times and we saw a show lol. Granted, the same place place gets old after a while but you see my point? And I want to get started BEFORE I get stuck with more bills, right now all I'll have is cellphone and a storage unit.
Dryver, thanks but not an option unfortunatley for me.
'olhand, I'm residing in NE Philadelphia right now.
Thanks to all for their advice, keep it coming. -
No disrespect fella...
But your way to young to be an 'Old timer'...
Old timers start at around mid 50's and above...true warriors from the old days...
At 40, your still a pup...
continue...Bodyinked Thanks this. -
LOLOL, love it my man, love it. -
Yeah! I was trying to figure out how he was so "OLD" when I have a son-in-law that's 49 and I can remember the 60's (and the 50's) ...although some of my friends from then can't.....
Bodyinked Thanks this. -
Lol, actually I was supposed to title it "semi-old-timer..." little play on words and for some reason I didnt do it. Ok, thanks for making me feel young but still, 40 ain't no spring chicken, and when I started most drivers I met had 25+ years on the road but now I see most are 5 and under, so I thought I was in the middle somewhere, lol.
BTW, watching the news about the tornado in Mass. they caught on tape. Is it just me or is there a lot of natural distruction going on these past few months?
Don't mean to create a thread in a thread lol.ghostchild Thanks this. -
Oh, pipe down! 40 is not OLD!! I'll be 43 in 12 days. If you're OLD, then I'm fartin DUST!
I don't feel OLD today. So neither are YOU!
