    Atleast for me it always seems like truck issues always happen in bunches. I can go a couple months with no problem then have a bunch of issues happen back to back to back.

    I graduate next week. Looking for other millis drivers opinions. Im taking the straight pay, no insurance offer..34 cent a mile. Single and will stay out 3 or 4 weeks. Whats the chances of gross $50,000 first year ?. Im guessing that would be around 2800-3000 miles a week. Live in triad north carolina

    You graduate next week and have 10yrs. exp? if this is so they should give you a higher cpm from past exp.

    34 cpm + mileage bonuses @ 2500 miles per week would be around 50.000

    Definitely doable. Just run when you can and rest when you have no other choice. 50000 should be no problem. After your first year will be much easier. Two cents more a mile and your truck will be turned up to 66 miles per hour

    Dropped in Eau Claire yesterday at Menards. Swapped my empty for one at Cascade paper since mine was leaking water inside. Picked up a load from Malettos in Eau Claire dropped that at West Allis this morning. Picked up a beer load at Richfield heading to All Star Distribution in Reading PA tomorrow for 1600 Appointment. Good week minus alot of waiting in docks.
