Based on my knowledge that area is a little iffy you would have trouble getting out of there and getting back home. Some contractors believe it is best to stay east of I-35 and others like to stay east of the Mississippi. Your area is not impossible but much harder than others.

Make a few trips to the flying j and make note of what companies you see there. Keep in mind even if you see mostly big carriers like the fed or panther they have a lot of trucks so it doesn't mean much on your chances with them.

The phoenix area basically sucks for expedite. But havin said that, if your willing to spend a couple of months at a time on the road, it won't matter just dead head home. Takea few days off and go back in serice and stay at home till something comes up. My wif e and I live in Riverside ca and ussually just dead head home if we deliver to phoenix.

Anyway I you don't mind being away for 6 to 8 weeks at a time it doesn't matter where you live.
