    More like pulling the wrong sort of trailer. I'd go buy a stepdeck but the rates would go through the floor about 3 days later.

    Yea I live in kind of a dead area for van though and absolutely detest being able to see more than 10 cars at a time that aren't in a parking lot.

    I went back to work on Tuesday morning with my dry van after a week off. Got home around noon today. I stopped by the house on Wednesday, spent the night in my own bed last night. Ran 4 loads and about 1500 miles, grossed $4,750 revenue.

    I'm content.

    I'm ever hungry. I could book myself out right now for as soon as I'm empty and just keep going into some most excellent freight.

    I'm seriously thinking about having Landstar disable me for a few days.
