    Not being a smart *****, but why don't you make one for others to see, and make a little money on the side for the work?

    Oh come on China, why go to an over stated exotic place like Saipan or any pacific isle?

    Come to Michigan, where we have great lakes and crazy idiot drivers, where gas is cheaper than california but more than NYC.

    See exotic places like Flint's abandon auto plants or go to Detroit where you can see a "restored" train station where there are not going to be any trains ever again because scappers ripped up the tracks to sell for cannabis. As a bonus, you will have to go through the ghetto to see it and may enjoy a Detroit mosquito going through your car or breaking your window.

    google is a mans best friend. just google out every company that intrests you and compare!!!! the higher pay per mile don't mean alot of miles. you might get a high cpm but always be sitting!!!! and don't belive the recruiters when they oh yea we'll run you 3000 miles a week. there nothing more than used car salesmen. then you have the situations when the shipper or receiver tells you to go take a nap cause there not ready for you even if your on time.

    Are there any companies / starter companies still offering the weekly minimum guarantee? That might be a good measure of how some of these companies are doing currently. It wasn’t used to be hard for a company to keep you running to offer $1,000 or $1,100 weekly guarantees.
