    Actually with the economy today, trucking is busier than ever. The industry is short 200k drivers. If you can't get freight with your current company or broker, better look else where cause they ain't doing their job bidding for the freight. Refrigerated freight is the way to go, it's the most recession proof freight.people gotta eat

    If this is the question that is so important to you that you ask it three times, do yourself a favor and remain a company driver. You will save yourself a trip to the poor house. When fuel goes back to 60 cents per gallon, then come and ask how fast you can drive. I am averaging over 8 miles per gallon, and I promise you, it's not because I'm running up against the governor.

    68 or 72 depending on the type of truck.

    But if you drive that fast. you won't make any money.

    If you want a steady check, then don't go l/p.

    JCT does not and will not hold your hand. If you don't know how to run a business, then you are going to have a tough time. JCT does offer ATBS for tax services, but it's ridiculously expensive at $20/wk
    Right now, our fsc is .42cpm

    On a 2012 Cascadia, the difference between 60mph and 68mph is 7.4mpg's and 6.2mpg's. Just some food for thought.
