    Where they send you purely depends on freight.
    Don't send any home time requests in and you'll get sent anywhere.
    Go home every chance you get and they'll be forced to keep you in lanes where they know they can get you back.

    True that Cassanova. Out west is vague. Anything west of I-95 is easy driving. West during wintertime can be a pain or less than safe conditions.

    Logistically, if you are in Miami, figure 600 miles per day just to see where you hope to go. That yells you how many days out and back. If I owned a company those runs aren't for new folks or somebody going out two weeks at a clip.
