I browsed the transport ads for Eau Claire, WI this morning and came across this one:
OTR POSITIONS AVAILABLE
I need a few drivers that can run 3,500 miles - 4,500 a week every week. I need drivers that can stay out on the road at least 1 month at a time. Starting pay is .40CPM - .45CPM on ALL miles depending on your mvr and psp reports, experience, and time out on the road. Your weekly checks should be $1,400 - $2,000 a week.
I suppose it is theoretically possible to somehow do six straight days of 680 miles a day, which would be about 4,000 miles a week, but... nah.
craigslist ad - seems legit

Do they pay all speeding tickets and provide log books by the case? I don't want to run like that week after week. I can run with the best of solo drivers (with 65 MPH truck) but an occasional 3500 mile/week is all I want.

Probably a 1099 job with an 80 mph truck. See quite a few of them here. Mainly guys running down LA or Yuma for produce

Not for me. Not without a team. And even then I might, or actually we might pass off on that. Those days are gone forever. Short of war; the hot shooting kind...
texasbbqbest Thanks this. -
If it was drop and hook on both ends, Eu Claire to Salinas, Los Angeles, or Yuma, it would be doable. But somewhere along the way, in that months period, there would have to be a couple of resets. And if it is a 1099, NO WAY i'd do it at 40-45/mi. Maybe at 75c/mile.
Bean Jr. Thanks this. -
Lol, i live in Eau Claire. Small world after all hahs

I need a few drivers to give their soul to my company. Pay will be whatever I decide to pay you. You will live in the truck, and will need to be creative with logging in order to earn a living here.
That's what I read.Ougigoug, rambler, pigeon river trucking and 5 others Thank this.
