uncertain how hireable I am??

Call and ask. They hire guys out west and deadhead them further than that.

Could also leave personal car at ltl yard

 

Might try Britton Transport. They allow dogs and I am fairly certain that they would be willing to throw more Western runs your way if you tell them that is what you want. It is automatic only company but personally if everything else fits I wouldn't skip out on a company just because of that. I am fairly certain they hire from anywhere but they do require longer times out depending on where you live. I work there but in the flatbed division. They are good to me. Best wishes in wherever you end up.

 

A demand is anything (YOU) place as a barrier to accepting a job. Don't confuse my words. I am not saying you are wrong. I'm just saying you might want to lower what you want a bit till such time a better option comes along. As @TripleSix says, Luck in battle!

 

Don't tell them that. Put the truck in D and release the brake. Put your foot on the gas and go. That's it.

 

Well said Sir. Does the OP want to work or place a ton of demands out there and see what sticks. OP, you really need to be a little flexible right now during this market. Good Luck.

 

Can you run Canada? Would be a big plus for your area.

 

Didn't you post that moving from the area is not an option?
