On the road with Millis

Thank you Steelersjunkie, I'm sure you're right and it is/was "perfect scenario/wishful thinking" on my part... that is just a long haul with no income but I am trying to start setting aside money right now.

 

@Steelersjunkie
I would like to see you get a driver referral when I start school if Millis does that?

 

I appreciate that so much! It gives a certain peace to know already before starting that I will have the encouragement and advice from someone who has recently "been there, done that" such as yourself! I would definitley like you to get referal credit for me if I get in because your threads and information are what made me the choice to make Millis my first choice.

 

So can someone tell me about how many miles are driven on a normal day at millis after starting solo? What is a normal start up and shut down time?

 

Miles vary greatly depending on otr vs regional, time of year, region you are in at the time, the person you ask, etc.

I am ga regional and I run about 2100-2200 miles per week. I know guys who get less than that and those who run weekends and fun 2500-3000.

I know a lot of otr guys who say they run 3000-3500 per week.

Start times are going to vary based on customers and appt times and the need to run to make those times. That's why trip planning is stressed heavily. Making those times is your responsibility. Millis is not going to tell you when to run, they just give you an appt.

I like to start about 0400 when I can, that way I am shutting down early enough in the day that parking is easy to find. It doesn't always work that way though.
