    hello, I’m currently driving for a company and it’s a good company but I’m make 34cents a mile. In 6 month from now they will increase my pay to 37cents per mile and anothe 6 month they increase to 43cents a mile and that is it. I have to get 6 month of solo experience before I can go on to a better company. if I’m correct it’s 6 month , I want to know what company’s will you recommend to go with for better pay. I drive manual shift and I like otr driving state to state or home on weekends. I just need better pay. I cant drive for Werner because they fired me when I only had 2 weeks of solo.

    I live in Ohio but the company I drive for is out of Florida. I’m a snow bird so I go to Ohio in the summer and back to Florida in the winter. I want to become a permanent Florida resident later on. I go to the Lakeland Florida area is where I go in the winter. In Ohio I’m down about30 minutes drive from Wheeling West Virginia

    You should work for one of those water hauling companies out in your area and you'd be home every day. Pay is probably 18 to $22 an hour. Which equates to roughly 25% of what the trucks are making.

    Do you have your tanker endorsement? It's a simple written test.
