Is it possible to only drive a couple weeks per month?

I just gotta ask: what kind of money are you planning on bringing in on the couple weeks you're planning on running? Leasing a truck definitely isn't cheap.

Pretty vague statement to go on but...
More or less, run short haul or something like the "11 western" (for example) and do a trip out and back. In the summertime, I would do a round in 2 weeks from the Midwest to Calfornia and back. Put 3-4Kin my pocket each way after expenses.

Company. I looked into it but they said I didnt qualify cause I dont live close enough to a terminal. I guess its slip-seat.

Okay, so I made a stupid post, wondering about Fleece Purchase programs...*slap self* But I still need to know: is there a way to get on the road, doing long distances, but only part time, as in two weeks a month? How do-able is the idea of purchasing a truck and then only driving when I want? (I would like to travel by truck, but only part time) Can a guy make his payments and expenses that way? If only I knew an O/O who wanted more time off and would let me take out his truck every once in a while while he stayed home... I assume there are no Company Driver casual jobs out there for someone like me who has less than a year experience? Thanks very much, Luke Not a bad idea really...if the truck made good money while you were driving it in "relief".
