Going tanker with Comcar CTL - what can I expect?

Good afternoon everyone,
Let me start by wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas holiday. I enjoy everyday browsing the forums as I retired over 4 years ago and surrendered my CDL. Now my wife and I are considering trying to go back into trucking for at least 4-5 more years. I would have to re-do my CDL-A with all endorsements and that is not an issue for me.
I am asking everyone if they think this would be a good idea? I would freeze my Social Security benefits for now but keep my Medicare. My wife is enjoying Healthcare.gov subsidies for her BC/BS and we know that the assistance with the monthly payments would stop and that is no problem.
I live in Ocala, Fl. and would prefer a southern regional route that allowed passengers so my wife can ride with me. I would not want to run out of the south [Fl., Ga., Al., Ms., SC.,NC., Tn., Va.] and be home weekly. I also would like to either drive dry van reefer or bulk tanker.
Am I crazy or should I just enjoy my retirement and remember my 44 year/3 million miles career and stay home? I thank any and everyone for their opinion. My son currently drives for CT out of Jacksonville, Fl. and their regional is great but I do not want to think of tarps.
Happy Holidays to you all and I look forward to your replies. Navypoppop

 

Many tanking companies don't allow passengers and the few that do won't be able to help you with the myriad of plants that won't let them in. Your wife is going to have to sit outside many, many times. I wouldn't pick tanking of you want her to ride.

 

all I can say is that comcar was definitely my first choice, but was the only company that cared about my misdemeanor, oh well.
