    Yo my fellow professional drivers!

    So, I applied for HMD Trucking which is in Chicago right? I thought it was one of those Russian outfits but it's been around for a long while. So I did the intelliapp, uploaded license/fed med, went thru the background etc.
    The website shows what drivers make upon rolling 11, 500 miles. I didn't care for the regional pay so I chose 2 weeks outs, 2 days home. I can easily roll 3000+ miles in a week. I am a hazmat driver which adds .04 per mile. So the benefit trucking sector of HMD called and asked me what my expectations were for mileage. I told her I expect to roll at least the 11,500 to get the .10 cpm incentive. Well, this broad said they can only offer 2500-2800 miles per week. Even at 2800, that would keep me 300 miles less than the threshold systemically.

    Anyone knows of this company?

    Yes I see them all the time. 2500 to 2800 is decent, about average in this freight recession. They've got good equipment, and running lanes I like. They are keeping the mileage expectations at what they know for sure you can average. Very few people get 3000 miles each and every week, even when times are good. Its better to promise low and deliver high. Are thinking of doing dry van or flatbed?
