    What would the intrest be in a company that owns trucks that only did day routes. Home in your own bed each night. Paying $25/hr with health insurance be? What would the Pro/cons be of a day job vs multiple days away?

    I would think that the interest would be obvious

    Just joined Wednesday.

    “Intrest in tricking” < Can’t spell “interest” or “trucking”.

    Username is the same as topic.

    Troll?

    Not to be oblivious, but isn't that type of tricking what we in the trade already call, a local trucking job????
    And aren't there thousands of these jobs available all across the US????

    You kinda answered your own question. Although I personally don't work that cheap.

    Might be a "Freudian slip". If the poster actually has an "interest in tricking", I'd suggest exploring it at their local truckstop or pickle park...
     
    Numb Thanks this.

    Some drivers like to be home every night and get paid for all hours worked, some like to see the country.
