    As for freight it matters on fleet it's honestly a mix of everything worth hauling no cheap loads from what I've seen and Home time is standard 1 day off for every week out. OTR is 3weeks out and We have KW's and Pete's No cameras

    Not yet. It'll be awhile before the cameras make it to the OTR trucks from what I've heard. Not gonna worry about it till I have one.

    Flatbed rates seem to be in the toilet and the outlook doesn't seem like they are going to go up anytime soon.

    I'd consider doing the Schneider bulk. I've never pulled tanker but its the one other division of trucking where I've seen company drivers make comparable money to heavy haul. It's hard to get into tankers.

    After a year or two, you can always switch to flatbed if that's what you really want to do.
