    First you need to find out if they will lease you on. You just don't buy a t&t and go sign on.

    That said many average 2 or more a mile and many more do not.
    You don't walk in and expect to start at the top, you have to be smart and work your way into the best freight, LS has good freight and crappy freight, those that figure it out do quite well, some never figure it out.
    I guess you realize freight is slow and prices are down everywhere.

    You don't need a 60,000 step to make it work.
