    You have to take turns slower. The only time tanking gets on my nerves is on i95. Gwb and north. People cut you off so much the liquid never settles. After 2 or 3 hours I pull off just to calm down.

    In the mid west it's easy peezy.

    That depends on the company. Some companies haul nothing but hazmat. Some haul nothing but food grade. Some haul nothing but non hazmat and non food grade and some haul a mix of all. The last company I worked for hauled mostly food grade. During planting season we had the option to haul bulk fertilizer. Those were good paying loads. I'd do two loads a week and bring home $1500. Miss those days but I need to be home every night now.
