Re: 1st post: any companies give you complete choice over when, where, if you take a Again, this is just a fantastic post, and I thank you. I hope I haven't been too chippy with everyone, but this post just looks like the kind of straight forward meat and potatoes I need to see if I'm a...

Re: 1st post: any companies give you complete choice over when, where, if you take a Thanks for the reply. I appreciate the constructive info from people who know. Landstar in this case doesn't mean Landstar Express America, does it? Yeah, plenty of freedom with the LCN and the load...
