    I took that load to Waco then dead headed 404 miles to McAllen. I started a fresh week there. Dropped and hooked, 1128 miles to Tempe, AZ then dead headed 1128 miles back to McAllen. I live loaded at Citrofruit and brought OJ concentrate 1455 miles to Riverside, CA. That closed out my week with just over 3,700 miles. I'm down to an hour and a half on my 70 so I will reset here.

    You deadheaded 1128 miles? Holy #### man. Been wondering how things have been going over there, thanks for the update.

    Yep. Dropped and hooked at Tempe and dead headed straight back to McAllen.

    I kicked that load off in Riverside California then reloaded in Fresno. Delivered it 1,679 miles to Joplin then came home for a few days. I'm going to roll again on Wednesday.

    Does Indian River hire in Utah? I saw Idaho as the closest.

    Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I'm not sure but my guess would be yes on Utah being a hiring area. Things have been good for me still. I'm on a load from Virginia to Idaho right now. 2300+ miles. I'll be delivering it a day early. Before this and since the last post I did, I've ran a Michigan to Florida, dead headed from Florida to McAllen then from there to California. I loaded wine in California for Nova Scotia Canada but since I don't have a passport I relayed it to another guy in Indianapolis.
    Pretty much every load I run or even my dead heads are a minimum of 800-900 miles. That's how I like it. The most paid miles I've hit in 1 week has been a hair over 3,700. My weeks average 3,000 miles. With my loads being so long and our payroll cutoff being Monday night, there are a lot of times where I have a 1,500 mile check but then the following check is a 4,500 mile check. This is due to say delivering a 1,400 mile load on a Tuesday morning just hours after the cutoff to get paperwork in. It all evens out though when you average the 2 weeks combined and divide by 2 it's usually 3,000 per week.

    Do you guys have autos in the fleet?

    Also, is the two-year OTR experience on the website accurate?

    Thx

    I think the 2017 Petes have autos and 2000 watt inverters. I don't know about the 2 years. I thought it was 1 year verifiable OTR.
