    I really appreciate you sharing your wealth of knowledge. I will look into these and also, screen shot it for future use.
    I do want to do flatbed, with the intent of going landstar in the future.

    I didn't know that Landstar did flatbed?

    If you're interested in a very recession resistant job. Doing reefer and dry van. Home everyday. Let me know. But not if you're just going to leave for some flat bed.

    yeah I would say reefer and having your Haz-mat, too. As you can always do dry van with a reefer trailer if needed.

    From a company driver experience; reefer drivers should have hazmat endorsement, otherwise, you're limiting yourself as to loads you can be dispatched on.
    For example, you unload produce, then call dispatcher for your next load. You're given a choice of laying over and hoping for something tomorrow or leave right now with a load of paint that's listed as hazmat load.
