Mr Goodtude was exactly right, when he said "EO junkie - and proud of it!"
But let's try to keep the cat in the bag, while we still get paid to do it, ok?
We get paid to do this? Ok now I know I love this. I second the Col's reasons for why I am doing this. I have been going places since I was born, and it is even better to get paid to go places.

WHY ???
well , I'm doing it for the Challenge of it , I guess...
at the last truck show in Louisville i hade to make a choice between buying another truck and do coast to coast again for the next 5 years , or TRYING Expedite .
i wanted to keep the life stayle that i had for the last 12 months of not trucking , thats ment keeping in shape , eating helthy wahile on the road and exercising regurally , i made a promest to myself not to get fat again
(like i was after 6 years of trucking .)
so i needed a truck with a shower .
in expedite there is always time for a morning run, or a set.
a good shower ,and a quality coffee are always better then a 2 hours of sleep anyway ...
still need to figure out how to exercise regularly in the winter ...
so Here i am having the best time on the road , now how to pay for all of this .... Hummm...
now that's can be a bit of a challenge ...
Oh well...
The rewards for success are grater then the results of failing .
as i have found out , Expediting is addicted ,and it is what i like to do. nothing like 6 wheeling ...
its a great life style .
nothing run like a
Moose.

It's the freedom being in a different place "normally" everyday. Unless of course you're waiting on a load. I don't like being told what to do and my job is fairly simple.
Pick up at point A
Drop at point B
And be on time.
Other than that...I've got freedom to do what I want.

Linda, I lost my breath reading your reply. LOL
I'm with you I couldn't have said it any better. plus since you did all the typing for me I won't repete it here. LOL But, were from NY, and in the winter I love getting out of the cold. (I don't care for the winter and I never have. To me snow perfect for Christmas but after its over then I take the warm sun and working in our yard back.
