    House in the ND Oil fields IS very very hard to get. Call any real estate agent in that area, and they will tell you be ready spend a bunch.

    the big wages of north dakota are gone, as too many people with stars and dollars in their eyes went up their... rates have dropped by 25% since November. Companies consolidating, closing terminals.

    Gold rush. Why not buy a truck if the money's that good, live in the cab like an OTR driver, keep the money? Thinkin' about it. Winters are brutal.

    It's like the chicken business. There was a time when it paid very well. Truckers flooded the market, then it paid well, then good, then decent, then okay, now the chicken hauling sucks. I think the ltl world pays better than any trucking job after you figure in the time off, benefits, labor, stress, laid back atmosphere, the leave you aloneliness, etc
