    congrats on the truck but while there are loads there that's the last state I would start a company I sooner start one in a desert and on the cheapest land that no one wants. I think that's what many the Megas did.

    Why do they hide it being a medical load?

    Because they don't want to pay you for it. Medical supplies are being paid more right now due to high demand yet brokers don't want to come off of the money.

    Aside from one the most expensive region startup be one. The other while go back to other reason is them EPA standard bs that's killing companies left and right there some have been around since right after WW2.
    The other states normally follow California but some the other states being in you would have more time to prepare.

    Yeah your right. Insurance is higher and CARB rules can get annoying.

    I find that hard to believe. Although who is paying would be helpful. If possible.

    Medical loads right now is like the Second Coming... gangway. Its a happy time. Not a place for gouging or other stupid money games.

    yeah all of your left leaning states are much much higher to do business within. But as you've stated you're only 19, you can't drive interstate. CA does give you the ability to log as many miles as an interstate driver intrastate. So for the next 2 years that isn't a bad place for you for miles. Just terrible for costs.
