    You really want to work out of Laredo, TX? Have you ever been there?

    Yea, I've been there when I delivered freight in expediting- my own cargo van. That was maybe 10-12 years ago. I didn't care for it then. I'm not saying I want to work out of Laredo. I'm saying I've got no problems if that's what it takes. I wouldn't move down there or anything, just work out of that terminal. I can live anywhere in the US. Ideally I could work out of Michigan here.

    Interviewed and did the phisyscal on Monday for cooper. Anybody know how well the guys out of Fort Wayne indiana do? They said I'll be hauling the new Chevy trucks. Any info would be nice and how much would bea decent guess on pay a week? I'm more in it for the challenge and the benefits but I need to clear 800 a week to keep my head afloat

    Was told you better have some cash in reserve as your first couple months will be $10 an hour for training & then running with a trainer. After that you may be able to hit what you are looking at, but thinking you would be looking at a solid 6/8 weeks taking home LESS than your $800 target.

    Terminal manager and the couple drivers at the terminal I talked to told me as soon as I get on the road with a trainer after working the yard a couple weeks I get paid like everyone else. I have a couple Grand in reserve because I knew that training never pays much. I was speaking in the long run. Any body on here run outta my area by chance?

    4 weeks at training pay. 10.50 an hr. 2 weeks on the dock then 2 weeks on the road. You get mileage starting on your first solo load.

    Its worth it tho. That 4 weeks will go by quickly. Even during training I brought home 900+

    You'll easily bring home over $800. Easy.
