    I agree with everything you wrote. What would be a solid game plan with end dumps? I'm guessing work for someone else moving scrap for a couple years then find your own piece of the market and buy a truck?

    Thanks Chinatown. I've been looking at ABF, great benefits and long hours is what I've heard from a couple guys I've met. I'll look into Central Transport and New Penn. What are your thoughts about hauling freight for a few years if my end goal is to be in business for myself in two or three years? I want to get into something that is profitable for owner operators since that's where I hope to be in a few years.

    Leonard's Express and Calex Logistics both hire new cdl school grads and do west coast turns.
    Leonards Express even pays for cdl school in Farmington, NY for anyone interested.
    I've seen Leonard's Express and Calex Logistics trucks running through Las Vegas where I live. Drivers say they sometimes unload in Las Vegas, then head to California for a produce load back to the Northeast.
    Kreilkamp Trucking runs midwest to east coast。Hard to say what will be profitable for owner-operators in a few years. In the meantime become a member of www.OOIDA.com and start the learning process to eventually become an owner-operator.
