    About to start trucking school! Having last minute jitters. So i have some questions for you experienced drivers currently in the game.

    1. Are you OTR drivers getting consistent 2500+ mileage a week?
    2. Or are you sitting around waiting for a load more often than more than not?
    I really appreciate your honesty guys! Looking forward to your comments.:biggrin_255:

    I pick up freight either every day or every other day.

    Compared to other companies I've worked for, I'm waiting around for a load less often than I used to.

    It seems that way, can't be totally sure but I am getting steady miles more so than usual in the past 2 months compared to the last few years.
