    I can find plenty of problems with living in the Northeast, but making money is not one of them.

    I am in love with the whole state for it's natural beauty and ample opportunities for a driver to earn and have fun.

    I doubt there is any state with cleaner truck stops and where else can you get a nice room for under $50 and food bargains galore.. Not just Vegas or Reno.. Check out Mesquite, Wendover, Winnemucka. Jackpot.

    The roads are generally top notch too. 600 miles a day is a given. Fastest growing state now tied with Idaho.. No wonder. Got here fast as i could.

    I don't mind living in NY but I'm sure I will miss it a little when I move south haha living somewhere with all four seasons in one week keeps you on your toes

    I go up to Massena NY sometime and they are ice fishing on the Lawrence river with their sheds on the ice. It looks awesome and the view of Canada behind them is nice.

    I grew up in NJ but an s 25 year transplant to the south.... here’s what I miss...top 10
    1) Excellent pizza
    2) best bagels
    3)Taylor Ham
    4) Truely friendly people, not this fake southern stuff
    5) NYC 30 minutes away (or 2 hrs ! Haha) best playground in the world right in NJs back yard
    6) 9 professional sports teams within an Hr drive..
    7) Jersey Shore
    8) real history
    9) did I mention Pizza
    10) cheap airfare... and a lot of nonstop flights

    I’m not saying no other area doesn’t have none of these things.... (quadruple negative haha)


    With that said... I ain’t going back!! Please don’t make me! My list of negatives is much longer
