    I thought CRST did only long haul.....Each run is to average 1400 to 1500 miles.... What's up with that!!!!!!

    all loads arent gonna average 1400 to 1500 miles, you will get some small ones to either get you out of a low frieght area or to get you home.

    I've been to bakersfield many times. Do you know where California City is? They built a private run prison out there about 10 years ago. We moved out there and I worked there for a couple of months. I Didn't like it so we moved back to MO. My son still lives out there.
