    Las Vegas is much more union centric .... and it's not so cal, which is a huge win.

    Drivers make good money out there? I want to move out there in 7 years or so. My boss might come with and we do our own thing out there or else I'd be looking for another job. He also said maybe I could take a truck and run loads for someone out there. I drive a tanker so I can do transport loads of def for anyone who pays us.
