    I hear a lot about Texas not being a good area for Flatbed.. I considered ATS, but was told the minimum hometime would be 2 weeks.... I wanted to go with ATS for the heavy haul and still might be doing it, if I can't make TMC work..

    I've had a couple bad weeks...Due to one being in South Texas where freight is s### and two during week of getting truck serviced.... I've been consistently grossing 1100 to 1200..... grossing 1400 once.. So far on my 4th month, I'm liking it, just not what I was expecting to be making, because I did that locally, but the company I worked for was on a decline... So I jumped ship... I want to eventually get my own truck tho... After 12 years of being a C/D I wanna give a crack at it.

    I would have thought you would be making more than that too. Hopefully it gets better.
