    I can't imagine getting through the house weekly with living in Nebraska. Just not a good area for freight for us IMO.

    Pretty good chances with Omaha or lincoln area but that would be it as far as fairly consistent.

    That would work for me. I'm leased onto a small company now and home a lot but earning potential is limited. It's a slow death or every spare dime to repairs and the tax man.

    anywhere in VA is good area for mercer. You'd get home as much as you wanted and plenty of freight.

    Is Springfield, Mo area pretty good for Mercer? I've been thinking about them for a year or so, most of the stuff I read on here seems good. I notice a few cut em down so I figure that's not bad cause your always gonna have drivers that are never pleased, but I have enjoyed all of skateboardmans post and advice

    The posts you find helpful or enjoy, you can click the thanks button in that posts and it gives brownie points to that driver.

    Though Skateboardman trades his brownie points for Mercer koolaid.

    Lol! I know, I figured he had enough. I was afraid if I gave him anymore he'd get an overweight, get to big of a head 😄
