You should do OK.Tri State has been around a long time. What's important is where do you live and how often do you need to go home. I take it you will be running as a solo driver and not as a team. I don't want to impart negative news but generally the winter months are slow in the expediting industry.
Usually, owners are kosher with their drivers being out 3 weeks, then home one week. Check with the one you're running for to see what he thinks is reasonable.
