    Sounds like you've got it made dude! Get a good CPA, work the system and enjoy your deal. If you went "normal" you'd probably make a couple hundred less, THEN have a couple hundred now removed in taxes, THEN your benefits! You've got a descent deal!

    Why not go home? I would take home more then that being home Friday night and leaving out Sunday afternoon with benefits 401k and paying taxes!

    Check out Melton. They are in the top 1% for pay across the flatbed divisions.

    Look at where you live! Right next to Chicagoland!

    Chicago is the working man's town, too bad the real estate and taxes are so high, or I'd live there. I do gypsy around a lot up there. Heck, I'm probably in Chicago as many days or more than I'm home. Been eaten up the NE shorthaul here lately though. It's cooler here in the summer.

    Check out P&S transportation out of Birmingham, they pay percentage have reasonable benefits and will most likely have you home most weekends.
