Hello All-
I am a brand new driver and will be graduating from school in 2 weeks or so. I want to buy a house here in Kansas City (and call this home) but I am willing to drive over the road for a few years (I am single and no one is waiting at home for me). I have a very deep desire to see the western half of the country, even if it means some mountain driving. Some of the most beautiful places I have ever seen are out west.
My question is this:
Are there any companies or types of loads I can carry that would ensure I get to go out west alot if I want to stay here in Kansas City but am willing to be on the road for long stretches of time. I am willing to go coast to coast. But, I have been hearing that a lot more freight goes east than what goes west.
I know I pretty much have to take whatever I am given for the first year or so but can anyone give me some good advice on where to place myself and what type of running to do to have a good shot at going out West???
Go West, young man!

Wait until you have a year driving before you make any hard decisions. You're assuming trucking is for you, it might not be. You may hate it and bail in a month. I loved it until the snow started flying, cause I was a S.Ca bred wimp. (Sunshine, yes, Ice and snow, nooooooooooo)

But you did steer me wrong on the crop I asked about yesterday.
