    Mikey is just headed back to SpringMo after doing his training miles. You will haul reefer trailers. (Unless you go FB or tanker). Sometimes the reefer might not be on. I'm guessing you'd come on-board at the 33cpm rate, if they decide you don't need to go out with a trainer. 6 months isn't enough time to hit 120k miles which is 34cpm. Reefer solo typically run lightweights, so you'd get that 5cpm bonus. And that will get you a total of 38cpm plus fuel bonus...which is relatively easy to get on the reefer side.
     
    MikeyB. and Everett Thank this.

    debating . i like the petes but mpg is kind of low. freightliner is pretty good on fuel. just not as much bells and whistles as the pete.
