Thanks for the info piper1.

I've been noticing a lot of X West Carrier straight trucks going up and down the big street in the Kitchener area. Kinda nice looking, black, tandem, Stirlings with bunks. Anybody know anything about them?

Now that there was funny! Thanks for sharing, Moot!

Soon it'll be a pic of one of our separatist leaders!! Hank

Yes, I see alot of these guys going up and down the big street where I spend a fair bit of time myself. Most of their equipment looks decent enough and there seems to be quite a few of them. Care to elaborate on these companies?........Anyone? Anyone on this forum who work for them?

Thanks folks, I appreciate the feedback. I'm kind of curious "OVM", since you mentioned the narrow lanes available here. Can I assume that expediting in this area is heavily tied to the auto industry? I've read on this forum for years, of folks who have the whole USA for their "playground"...

Now lest you think that, based on this and my previous post, all I'm interested in is money, you'd be missing the mark. I'm in this for the whole experience. However...........I'm used to making pretty decent money and have come to believe that my time should be worth something. That said, if...

I'd be happy with 30g's but more is always nice.;) I have my AZ so tractor trailer would be an option, however I was thinking that the straight truck idea might be a bit less stressful. I love driving, and miles won't an issue (if available), it's the tight schedules and rushing that I'm not...

Thanks OntarioVanMan, that's just the kind of honest feedback I need as I explore all my options. That goes toward the "pipedream" column!! pjjjjj, I don't have anyone in particular lined up yet. Some possibilities in the non-expedite field (which might actually pay better), but I'm real...

I'm not even buying the fuel!! Just thinking in terms of comfort, although manueverability might be an option to consider as well I suppose.

Just me and owner giving me the option.

Will be hitting the road in the spring, to begin my second career and I'm checking out different driving options. Having lurked around this forum for years, I'm somewhat intrigued by the lifestyle. I've kept up my driving skills over the years with a variety of part-time jobs, so it won't be...

I'll begin driving in the spring and may have the option of driving a class 8 tractor (prosleeper) with a stretched frame and 24-26 ft box, or a newer, more typical ,expedite type class 7, nicely appointed, air ride etc. I've driven class 8's but never 7's and am concerned that the 7 will not...
