The fact the question in the OP even needs to be asked is the proof in the pudding. I'm no million miler expert but I know 2+2=4 most of the time.
Are there CR England success stories?

Something must have changed. I was getting plenty of miles, was out at least 4 weeks, and generally timed my paperwork that when I did take time off in Phoenix where my kids were, I usually took a week and still made no less than $1500. I do recall one driver I repowered a load off of complaining that he was not getting but about 1500 miles a week but he also admitted that he had called safety on his DM because his DM asked him to run a hot load.
I always considered my break even at 2000 miles, and generally ran 3500+ miles. -

I ran team with my son ... Miles were never a problem ... it was the pay/expense ratio. $800 about all you'll pull solo.
As for Swift, my break even is around 900 miles. I clear that $1500 on 3K, after putting $.15 per mile in my maintenance account. I have complete access to the money in that account, at any time, for any reason. I don't even have to have an account if I don't want one.
As for planning, I can wait for the system to send me a preplan. I can query the system for up to 3 preplans, 24 hours before PTA - I can choose one of those or wait and query for another 3 an hour later. I can call the planner directly and see what they may have ... or the real gold, I can call a broker directly anytime and negotiate a load and a rate.Moving Forward and Rick Brown Thank this. -
