    How many miles do you guys average and how often do you deliver in Chicago? Thinking I may go this route to get me home to the Wife alot more.

    That's good to hear. Big cities is my biggest fear. Until I get used to driving I think that's the scariest part.

    no difference in otr or regional. Pay depends on what you choose. Per diem or straight pay

    It varies so much week to week. Did you ask if there was any openings, because as of right now they are barely keeping us going that are on it now so I am not sure if they are adding anymore. A good week is 2400 for the most part.
