    I think we have some couples that drive together like teams, but dispatch is not set up to dispatch teams so you may not get team miles like you would expect somewhere else.

    I'm not 100% sure about though

    L.b is correct there is at least one married couple that run the same truck, but its not really dispatched likea team would be. No clue who you talk to if you wanted to try and setup like that.

    I can't find any info on training pay. Anybody know what it is? How long usually out with a trainer? I know the second question is answered on here but my eyes are starting to hurt from reading threads!:biggrin_2551:

    Also, it looks like you guys are running about 3000 miles or more a week. How many hours on avarage do you run a day to get that many miles? Do you run up against your 70 often? By my calculations it looks like it would be possible to make around $800-900 gross a week right out of the gate. I know being new would also mean being slow but if you were busting your butt are they numbers that you will usually see as long as you are up to speed?

    Keep in mind you will need $100 to reserve your seat and $400 the day you get there. You will not get paid the three and a half weeks you are in training at the school. You probably will not receive your first paycheck until your second or third week out with your trainer.

    yes the 800-900 gross is very doable if you are otr the regional guys can answer on there part but I would assume it may harder to do regional and yes I run 3000+ most weeks and I very seldom do resets and I,m out 4-6 weeks at a time to do that you really have to manage your time very tightly your dispatcher and you have to really communicate very well
     
    rizob Thanks this.

    MTownZ, I was looking more for the pay when you are out with the trainer. I'm not sure if you were talking to me or someone else! lol
