    Most SOLO lease operators at New Prime Inc make that. However, you still are responsible for the WEEKLY lease payment on weeks that you "take" home time.

    You CAN get TO Florida, However, Rates out of Florida aren't the best. Usually out of Florida it'll be Tropicana, Anheiser Busch or floral loads.

    The reason is simple Florida is a "consumption" State not a production state that is why Freight out of Florida isn't as plentiful as other states

    And what you find are cheap as heck out, because idiots take the loads. Even as a company driver they’d always bounce me back to GA. Even with LS I went to Florida twice, but bounced to GA, but the loads paid well going in.

    Yep ... a steady stream of empty flatbed and van/reefers with no locks or seals heading north on 301.
