I've been out of the, run as many miles as you possibly can mindset, however, I would say that an annual average of 120,000 miles as an OTR solo driver, is realistic.

BigKav Thanks this. -
That was for @BigKav

I run pretty hard and about the most I can get in a week is 3400. I have heard about guys getting more but I never have.
BigKav Thanks this. -
Yinz are all crazy doing above 100,000 a year. Atta boys.
I do about 1,000-1,300 a week doing local dumpster 5x a week. that's enough seat time to make me go stupid. -
We had an end dump driver that drove 42 miles last week. That's right, 42. He also had over fifty hours for five days.
He was working onsite on a big construction project moving excavation material to a stockpile. Sometimes he'd haul ten or twelve loads a day. Sometimes three or four.
He said he got a lot of reading done. -
I believe it 100%. We have a guy that sits at a power station( Nuclear / Coal ) runs out boxes outside the gates to other drivers to haul. last load of his day takes to our landfill. which is around 36 miles one way. He lives 2 miles from home base.
Maybe 3 boxes he takes home in 5 days. If he tried. could beat 42 miles in the week
EDIT: I forgot to mention he idles the 550hp kenworth. Only jealous because that truck could be used for other crap. My dinky 300hp mack struggles and generates a lot money same with my under powered coworkers. However he can keep that boring job. we all get paid the same hourly.Last edited: Nov 7, 2018
REO6205 Thanks this. -
I hope he isn't paid by the mile.
-
Hourly, with OT. He's one of our retirees who comes in for extra projects like this when everybody else is busy.
The truck gets paid by the hour too. It's a good deal for everybody. -
I can officially say CAROLINA CARGO!!!
When I first decided to drive I knew I’d have trouble landing a good job due to felonies on my background. But all I wanted to do was drive so I went for it. CC was the only one that would touch me. But I needed to get my foot in the door. So I swallowed my pride and drove for 10cpm!! YES TEN CENTS PER MILE!!!! That’s how bad I wanted it. Stuck it out for a few months and started to climb the ladder. Couple years later I’m right where I want to be.
So yes the blood sucking maggots at Carolina Cargo pay the lowest
Texas_hwy_287 Thanks this.
