    Good question. I stayed out for the weekend because I planned on taking a week over Turkey day. Everything was going peachy until a shipper put the wrong product on my trailer and messed up everything. The NE is high risk/high reward. There's money there, but if your plans fall apart you're ####ed. Prob won't be going back anytime soon. I'm going to try the Texas market next I think.

    Yeah Northeast is crazy.
    Texas is nice but everybody floods down that area during winter.

    You don't need the tank endorsement, it's "preferred". But it doesn't make any sense not having the endorsement. All that's required is to take a 20 or 30 question test at the DMV and the questions are pretty much impossible to get wrong if you have any common sense and study the state manual for a day or two.

    If you don't have the endorsement yet and already got your CDL the state is probably going to charge $10 or so to add an endorsement to your license. Just wait until you hire on so Schneider covers the cost (if it's just $10 might just be worth paying it now and getting it out of the way)
