To me Mackman staying put is the move I'd make as well. I don't know if you're into hunting and fishing or stuff like that but you wouldn't have a lot of time for other activities driving OTR. I don't drive for a living but I have a brother in law that does and I don't think he's hunted since he started driving. He just doesn't have the time or energy when he's home. He pretty much works on little projects around his place or catches up on rest.

I may drive someday but it'd be local or with a company with very good hometime.

yeah trapper i was thinking that i like to ride by Harley alot and on Friday night go out to the bar with all my friends and what not. I think i will do OTR one day but maybe when am a little older. I looked at what i make now and see what OTR drivers make. I think am ahead of the game for the most part. Its just something about the otr i cant get out of my system.
