    Milk tankers probably easy compared to any other OTR companies. Much less stress and better caliber of customers.

    Right then and there when you start thinking, it’s routine and predictable is when it sneaks up on you and a series of crazy things will happen to remind you that there is very little normalcy with living on the road. Lol at least that’s how it goes for me. I try not to jinx it with your line of thinking.

    There’s many folks doing it. You’ll need a right carrier tho. A friend of mine used to do Illinois to PA home on weekends. Making $1700-2400 a week depending how many runs he did. It’s all about the right employer, stay away from greedy pos megas.
