This is a bit long but please read and help me out

I got a good job. I was going to relocate but the housing market crashed in 2008 and now I can’t get what I owe on my house 0K, Top offer was 0K, I have been working for Pepsi for over 3 years now. I drive back and forth 300 miles every week, Total 600 miles each week. I sleep in my Tahoe truck because the company cut overtime pay and hotels and apartments are too expensive for me. The commute and food costs me about 00 per month. So I pretty much pay a minimum of ,000 per year to work for this great company. The reason it has been so long is that time flies and I have been waiting for the market to get back on it’s feet, a pay raise, a job transfer or a miracle. It’s like a catch 22, the Job pays good money and is a good company, it pays 50K Salary. I have already paid about ,000 or more to work for this company because of the commuting and food. I can work from home but for 2 work from home days… I have to use 1 vacation day and we only get 10 days out of the year. I got a wife and 3 kids, so that is tough to be without them and to balance a work with a family. I tried to rent my house but it seems like nobody wants to Rent the house because rent would be 00 per month for them and many of them say they can go buy a New house for like 00.00 , My red brick Centex house is nice but also needs about K in repairs to make it new looking again. Central Heat/AC went out, roof, fence, all the bath fixtures and kitchen counter needs to be replaced. Anyways I tried to short sale a long time ago and Bank of America wouldn’t allow it unless I was in foreclosure status and at that time they stopped all foreclosures. So 10 months later… and 2 weeks ago I got a letter from them saying my house is going to go up for foreclosure on the 7th of June. Now this local big time tomato company Desert Glory wants to interview me and pay me 55k to 60K per year. Still no guarantee in writing but the 2nd of 3 interviews are in place and the recruiter says I got the job just make them happy. I past the first interview. So By next week I will know if I got the job but I’m not sure if I want it because I don’t know if it’s going to be easier or harder? It looks like it’s going to be much more work. But I’m not for sure 100% , So I am losing a house and can possibly save it if I refinance or file bankruptcy or Do you think I should let it go and so be it? and then I have to decide if I want to pack up all my stuff and kids and go to Dallas? So it’s Dallas or San Antonio Texas to choose from. If I take the new job it pays a bit more and no commute but not sure what to expect and if I continue with the old job it’s pretty busy, I trouble shoot system issues for Transportation warehouses across the USA, the other job is similar but more dealing with the trucking companies and the Customers.
What should I do?
1. Save the house and take the new job?
2. Take the new job and say screw the house that will cost me 30K to fix up but then I will probably owe the difference from the foreclosure or short sale
3. Take the new job and try to save the house and deal with 30K in repairs
4. Keep the Pepsi job and screw the house and start all over?
5. Keep the Pepsi job and try to sell the house, but no guarantees if there’s enough time
6. or do you have another suggestion??

<if it wasn’t for the commute and expenses, Pepsi would have probably been a okay job, but just had a catch 22 of bad luck? The new job offer is no guarantee yet but is 75%, I have senority and trust at Pepsi, The new job is starting all over with 10 days vacation versus 30 at Pepsi, but sometimes a new job is better, but then again not always??> Help, I’m so confused and stuck.

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!
