    Why do you do this?

    Thanks to everyone for your insights. I learned alot about this business in this post. I too, like most of you, just like to drive.

    CDL ?

    I'm new to this and still researching the business, hopeing to jump in if I can get someone to hire me. Anyway, this might be a stupid question but I want to make sure I have this correct. Any truck with a GVW under 26,000, you do not need a CDL to operate. Is this correct?
