    No family no nothing? I'd have dirt lot at a trailer park don't matter where at. Just someplace I could get mail and I'd be living on the road. Sorry if I had nothing to come home to it wouldn't be home. So there's no point in going there. Jmho

    Now, for me it'll probably be some where along I-20 between Atlanta & Dallas.

    I live in Western Ohio, and it's really good for freight. I'm 45 minutes from Dayton (70/75), Ft. Wayne (30/69), 2 hours from Toledo and Columbus, and 3 from Indy, Cinci, Detroit and Cleveland. There's a lot of freight going and coming through those markets.

    The Triad of NC. In and around there the cities of High Point / Greensboro / and Winston Salem all have terminals if big and small companies located close by. Also the 2 major interstate highways of I-40 & I-85 run through the middle if that area with I-95 close too.
