    Yes, but I would rather be out 2 months and then 2 weeks off.

    That would definitely interest me. Or at least, it would have before I met my old lady and settled down to a local job. Actually gonna be getting out of trucking altogether for a work-at-home opportunity in the next year or two. But that sounds like a hell of a deal to me, if I was staying OTR, assuming everything was like you said, no BS. I'd stay out that long for that kind of money and hometime.

    I'd do it if trucking was the way it was in 1995.

    I'd turn it down. The money is good, but my life at home is better. However, I would consider sleeping in a truck for that much money if I were home on weekends (for 48 hours minimum).

    I'd have my #### in the truck and hooked to a trailer before you finished your sales pitch.

    No thanks. I can find jobs paying that and be home more often money isn't everything

    The offer you have out lined is very close to what I was doing.

    I did that for close to seven years.
     
    ethos Thanks this.

    I would pass; 30 days out isn't worth the money to me
