"Less than Truckload" requires you stop along a route and drop freight?

Is that always solid stuff like on pallets ETC.?or part of a load from a tanker?

If this board is not frequented by "over the road truckers" is there another board where I can find a different prospective?

I don't want to make anyone angry but I'd like to get this occupational change in my life right?

Also a driver I recently met told me that without HazMat endorsement loads are few and far between.

Will increased fuel taxes mean a harder time earning a living as a driver? (I've already financially committed myself).
