    Also on the topic of recruiters keep on mind the different companies out there pay them differently. Ours are 100% paid by the hour no commissions on how many apps they get approved. Some companies do that and it makes what they are saying kind of hard to believe.

    You will be making .42 cents in 6 months if you come in as a student. It's 6 months from your solo date which is the day you recieve your truck. I think they push for an average of 2200-2400 per week. I have ran 4000 in a week but only once, Uncle Sam loved it! Miles really depend on your motivation; such as keeping the doors closed, properly and efficiently securing/tarping, and running the loads they give you. They don't push you but they will keep you moving if you prove that you can utilize yourself in a good manner.

    ps. As of 5/24, I have 47,592 miles.

    Thanks for the reply I've been busy today and didn't get time to respond til now. On top of that you get $550 every week your in training first week in orientation you get $50 in cash and $500 on your first check. Plus $400 when evals and get your own truck then $400 again when you deliver your first load solo.
