    When looking for a company that has the resources to help you make money as a company drivxer. Look for these signes when reading the job description: 70mph + combined with at least 60CPM +. Anything less is a waste of time unless your a new driver. Look for 3200 plus miles a week and cpm of .60 or more. And something off subject. If your driving 3000 plus miles a week you probably want a 13 speed manual. The reason for driving a 13 speed is exercise.

    Do you haul Unicorn Farts and Pixie dust? Just wondering where you have found them, my supply dried up a few decades ago.

    How exactly do you get exercise with a 13 speed?

    Area you’ll run in matters too lol, 70mph at 60cpm means nothing stuck in San Antonio traffic or Atlanta or etc.
    I also don’t wanna do 3200miles in 5 days.
    I want 2800miles a week at the most, and to be home Friday morning (BEFORE 10am, that doesn’t include driving all night either I start no earlier then 3)

    my current company does it with a few outliers where I get in Saturday afternoon.

    but hey man you can’t tel people they’re wasting their time, not everyone needs the same thing.

    it takes all kinds for the world to go around.

    The only thing getting exercised with my 13 speed is my thumb, index finger and right forearm. I pee with my left hand so it doesn't get withered up.
