    Do you own your own company or are you a fleet owner?

    My partner and I have 8 trucks and 10 trailers...We both drive. I drive full time, He drives most of the time. We have our own authority and run a combination of our own prime customer freight and brokered freight.

    We are considering adding a couple more trucks right now.

    I usually average 2000-2500, which doesn't sound like much, but it's all I want. I'm just an overgorwn kid and I like time to go out and play.

    I'm a Swifty, btw.

    Right now my AVERAGE is about 2100-2500. I have some weeks that I run so hard I only know where I am because of the logbook, anbd I have also had a couple of 800 mile weeks.

    Due to this I am actually content averaging 2100-2500. It may not be the miles some of you make, but it pays all my bills and leaves me moderately comfortable.
