    This is not a plan I would consider. Why not work a W-2 driving job, unless you are intent on cheating someone out of tax payments? There are trucking companies that will let you live in the truck, except during maintenance. You'll have to leave the truck during maintenance whether you are 1099 or W-2. With W-2 all of your pay is profit.

    Doctor I don't care if you see cancer in my eye. I asked if you think these sunglasses make me look like Tom Cruise.

    If you don't refill them with water, computers will run very slow, especially the internet connection.

    Just get on with the first Chicago 1099 that will hire you.
    Pay all fees and deposits asked of you.
    Make sure to run 2 elds to maximize earning potential.
    Don't bother documenting anything such as condition,damage,expense or deductions...
    Good luck and see ya back here in 6 months or so..smh

    Those "Crazy Igor" and "Punjabi Bobby" 1099 fleets are about 90% thieves. Russian roulette gives better odds......

    Not a personal opinion, I have seen people get hurt and suffered as the employer did not cover their injuries. The system was put in place to protect employees, but I guess some people think they know better. That is my personal opinion.
