Congrats and welcome to the JCT family. I see that ur from florida. I would recommend that u pick a light truck to start cuz loads outta florida especially orange juice are heavy and they won't adjust load. If ur over gross u'll just have to roll with it trying to avoid scales or not fill ur tanks all the way. N e ways good luck. We'll be here if u got more questions

Being that I have not started with JCT yet I can only assume that they do del to the Orlando area as I see them often on I 4 in the Deltona area. (only 20 miles from Orlando)

Im coming to JCT june 15th. Jumping from my paid off truck to over 2000$ monthly payment.... My truck is 9 years old though - 900 thousand miles, cant pull heavy loads over the mountains with it. Been doing local container work arround chicago but netting only about 1000$ a week. From what i have read on this forum i can expect about 1500$ if run hard? So i think its gonna be worth it. Chicago railyards just driving me crazy, amount of #### that drivers have to take from yard workers is just unbelievable - and you cant do nothing or will be banned. I just started to hate my job, need a brake from Chicago. Im probably gonna hire a driver to run with my old truck - just to have a little income on the side. Any of you guys have supersingles on? Does JCT allow that?

First welcome and about the money it really depends how hard u run and keeping ur foot off the pedal. There will be weeks where u get less than 3000 miles but don't let that discourage you. Idk if anyone have supersingles and don't think JCT will allow it

I've seen a couple of the trucks with supersingles on them. I had talked to the shop about putting supersingles on. They will order them in if you want, but it's an expensive upgrade. I decided that at least for now, I'll run what I have.
