Advice on dedicated regional Mn./ Midwest

Sorry for being jaded but due to a few bait and switch adds I've responded too I'm wondering how much smoke is being blown on this account. I live in Mn. I'm being told .40 cents a mile about 2400 miles per week. 22 bucks per stop and avg 11 stops a week. Home as much as 2 nights per week (10 hours) plus home for 34 hour reset.

 

Add says 65k but talking to recruiter and his numbers make 1202 a week and 62,500 which if true is still totally cool. At first he was saying refridgerated but 2nd time I talked with him he said may be a box van. All pallet jack unload. No breaking down of the pallets.

 

I've had my CDL for 1 year exactly and feel blessed for the job I have and I've been told by many I should be. Last year i did 51k home every night other than just a few trips I volunteered for. Avg. 50.6 hrs per week. Far busier 8 months per year but for the other 4 I still get 42.5 hrs. per week. 62-65k would be fantastic but if it turned into 55k isn't worth not seeing my wife and kids very much.

 

I am interested in a JB Hunt DCS job. I currently don't work for JBH. Your experience sounds great and I wonder if the area I would be in would be much different? MN,SD,ND,Wisc, ILL, IA.

 

Definitely going to talk to the next JB Hunt driver I have a chance too.

 

Things are progressing for me. I have a orientation scheduled but going to push it back a week. I told them i want my psp report pulled and approved befor i give my 2 week notice to my current employer. 'There is something on there that hurt me with two companies, Ruan and Cardinal. The people im dealing with at JB say it shouldnt be a issue but i need to make sure. So is there any JB Hunt drivers from Mn. on here? Looking for anyone familiar with the Mission foods dedicated account up here.

 

Well everything is set. I have 3 days left at my current job and Im signed up for orientation starting feb 22nd in Cedar Rapids Iowa. Im gonna start another post on my experience.
