We are mixing apples and oranges in this tread.
I am (going to be) reselling VOIP from Xmission in SLC.
They have been around since the beginning of the internet. I presume whatever
they are using is carrier class.
I am the one running asterisk for my shop. I would like to start to use my own
product, the Xmission VoIP rather than paying much more for SIP trunks from
Xmission.

Not necessarily, especially if you consider what a hosting provider is doing on
top of just the pure minutes. Also, any free PBX solution is not anywhere
close to the capabilities and resiliency of a real switch.
Fixed cost also means you know your margins and makes things far more
predictable. And if you have a user that uses more than the average... they
lose not you.

with any volume you want to go to a per minute/per item rate, then you reap
the profits instead of the guy offering you $8 flat rate...

With LNP and direct PSAP and unlimited LD etc?

I would have to assume doing with a national wholesale voip provider would be
a fraction of the cost compared to a $8 flat rate per line.

Just as a clarification, FusionPBX is freeswitch not asterisk.

Having a direct connection for a SIP trunk is easy. Just put an Adtran 904e
or something else into the mix. For LNP you don't need to have the switch
on-net... just a device in the exchange for portability and a T-1 or something
else.
To answer your question... CallerID manipulation is easy right now. In 9ish
months once STIR/SHAKEN is a thing... you may run into issues getting calls
signed with a TN for CallerID that isn't on that providers service.
So yes... to answer your question it is easy to do on an Asterisk based
system (FreePBX or FusionPBX for instance) but someone like Lewis and I could
save you a lot of trouble for certain. That and it is easy today... but is
going to be a lot more complicated next year.
