Good choice. I refuse to fly domestic anymore. I load my shite up in one of my trucks and maybe my wife's bulldog and drive. #1 reason--I'm armed the while trip and at my destination.

I’m provided a vehicle allowance, fuel card, and I’m paid mileage. And I use to be a field rep, so spending all day behind the wheel of a pickup truck is something I’m both use to doing and quite comfortable with.

Before last summer, I use to fly frequently for business, at least 5-6 times a year. But the experience got to be absolute torture. Multiple times of being left stranded on tarmacs for an hour or more, twice in aircraft where the A/C either didn’t work or could not keep up, was the straw that broke the camel’s back.
