    My miles for 2011 were 116454. Roughly 11.5k less than 2010.

    Averaged 2239/week including home time. Not so hot. I saw my miles go way down when I decided to stop training. Not looking like I'm staying much longer.

    I got my freightliner back at the end of May.

    Now, back to the topic at hand. I am curious as to what others got. If you don't know for sure, ask your DM to look up your miles for the year. I was surprised when mine said I had only 116k. You might be surprised too.

    Just a tad over 88000 miles for me in 2011, and so far in 2012, 0. But I dont get paid by the mile either.:biggrin_25525: Nor do I work for May.

    Worse yet, keep track of ALL the actual hrs you are on-duty, in the sleeper at the shipper, receiver, etc., and divide the hrs into your gross ;-)

    Only do that IF you want to get really depressed though.

    I agree scooter, Walmart alone has killed much free time. I have done resets thanks to them. How do they justify charging, when the time it takes to unload.and production lost.
