    My wife and I have been doing this for over two years. We can tell you that this is a job and it can be an adventure. You can have it all. We do consistently 6,000+ miles a week and when we're doing a reset we'll use the downtime to go do fun stuff. [​IMG]

    Doing a reset now. What did we do today ? Got a rental car and went to downtown Atlanta to go see the World of Coke, Civil Rights museum, Georgia Dome, Georgia State Capital, The Varsity, etc.

    Few weeks ago we did a reset in Dallas. What did we do ? Visited my favorite television show. [​IMG]

    I wish I could 6000+ miles a week.... We just sat 48 hrs is Auburn, WA, delivered to Sacramento. Have a 10 hr wait here. Deliver in Groveport then a 16hr wait for a pick up that goes to Houston. Last week 4500 miles, this week isn't looking much better...... I talked to a Team Max team at the Love's in Tacoma yesterday; said the last 2 weeks they have barely broken 3000 miles!!! I hope things improve, miles wise, I enjoy this Ceva account, but the 4700 mile guarantee won't cut it. Rant over.

    The world of coke is pretty cool!! Did you do the Georgia Aquarium too?

    Years ago could by thaisticks; all you could pick up with one hand cost $1.00
    That was in Asia. Bar girls could get opium & absinthe as a kicker with San Miguel or whiskey.
    Now I'm just relagated to betel nut.
    Oh, sorry, this is the USX forum.
    It's OK, TRUCKDUO are my friends.

    Ok Truck duo I have another question. Does US Xpress really expect you to go out for 8 weeks of training at 400 bucks per week? #### even Werner only does 4. Schneider does like 3. 8 weeks seems rediculous I will go broke if I only make 400 per week for 2 months?
