    No longer than any other kind. (Just get in the habit of checking the unit every time you stop to make sure it's operating, & keep it fueled up so your freight doesn't spoil.) As for solo or team, that's your call. If you luck into a local gig like Tony explained, you can definitely do solo. As for OTR, you can also do solo, but some produce may require teaming to get it cross country in a short amount of time. That's entirely your call however. If you prefer coast to coast,teaming may be the way to go. (although,like I stated, I also know of companies here in my area that do the coast turns with only 1 driver.)
