    Which terminal is closer to you? Detroit is the big terminal in Michigan

    Estes has a yard in Grand Rapids, MI. I see it every time I get on 131-South. But I do have family that stays in Detroit, so moving there wouldn't be an issue. I'm still at the beginning stages of getting my Hazmat and Doubles endorsement. I've held my CDL since 2018. I didn't bother getting those endorsements because I didn't need them. But I'm at a place where I want to make some more money. I'm only averaging about $800-$1,100/wk.

    What you should do is go over to the terminal and talk to them. I've never been to the terminal there but I've been to Detroit and another one there.

    Lucky you. I used to go there all the time!

    Used to get stuck in MI and hit every single terminal in one day.

    R+L wouldn't let you get no time off. They get mad when you asked off few hours early. She graduates 1st week of December.

    My old boss had a spot and was looking so I'm going back to a contractor I used to drive for @ fedex ground. I'm going run a few short p&d drop hook and then a Nashville linehaul untill she graduates. 1st of year I'm going to cut my hours back and chill.

    My brother been there 3 years he does low 80s. I figure starting next year I will work kao hours and do 60s relaxing!

    I told you I wasn't crazy. He wants to be at home to watch that woman and bother those kids when he should be out chaining and running Northeast.

    @jtaran06 you know women get kinda crazy when they make a bulk of the money right? Lol
     
    MACK E-6 and jtaran06 Thank this.
