    The company I currently drive for is considered one of the best. There is even a post, in another forum, explaining in great detail just how great it is. I don't completelt disagree, BUT
    if I don't get an average of 1800 miles a week, nothing else really matters.
    When Hired, I was told I would get an average of 2800 miles a week. I thought that was great! I wasn't used to such easy weeks.

    What I am looking for:
    1) go to the Good Trucking Jobs website advertised on these pages (I guess I would be breaking the terms of service to put the link in here)
    2) Good wages and good miles

    What I have to offer:
    1) no tickets
    2) no accidents
    3) 5 yrs recent, verifiable experience
    4) no arrests, ever
    5) excellent health

    Catch: South Florida very much preferred! Palm beach County are is BEST, other areas will also be considered.
    I don't need to drive OTR, although that is what I have been doing.
    I am just tired of sitting in truck stops 2 or 3 days at a time, followed by 200 mile days driving.
    Thank you

    1800 per week removes them from the best catagory.

    Good luck brother.

    The economy and your location is going to make that search a tough one. I'm sure you're aware of that though.

    Try hooking up with a local or regional company.

    Mine has worked out really well for me. It's less pay per mile. But a lot more hometime. :D Which kinda offsets that less pay thing.
