What the work looks like

Dry van freight across every state west of the Mississippi line, from the Northwest down to Texas. Stops pay $15 each. Some weekend work comes with the territory, and you are home every two weeks.

Your truck

A late-model tractor, about a year and a half old on average. The fleet runs automatics and 10-speeds.
