Switch to hopper bottom from covered wagon??

A local farm to me is looking to hire a east coast/midwest hopper bottom driver. Should i give up running coils for this gig? Only grossing 900 a week running coils from upstate ny down to tenn. And back.

Just wondering what my concerns should be.

Should i be excited or run for the hills

 

Just wondering if its even worth considering..with coils i dont wait very long to load or unload..an occasional instance but nothing too major...is that same for hopper? Farm says i can gross 1200 a week or more running monday thru friday

 

Yes farm products only I believe...single truck operation..he said he would be dispatching me at first then he would like me to have access to getting my own loads. Has consistant runs to and from farm to lancaster pa.

 

At the very least home every other night if i just want to run to Lancaster pa. If i want to run can stay out all week and run as far south as ga and out to Indiana.

 

Just concerned it would be a lateral move. Never done Hopper bottom so unsure if what it all entails. Load/unload times etc. 900 a week doing coils to tenn and back isnt cutting it though.
