Check out Advantage Trucking in SLC. They do full and LTL loads in all 48, but you aren't doing much physical labor. They do a lot of wine hauling and perhaps you could get a dedicated run from SLC to the west coast and home on weekends.I talked to an older driver a few months ago that was making $80k a year with them on salary just doing the Utah to Oregon run. Of course you'll be chaining up in winter, but if you don't have a problem with that it sounds like a decent gig.
