Millis chat room

MILLIS isn't buying anymore T660s. Heard this from the boss himself. Too many drivers prefer the larger cabs and they've had too many problems with the 660s. There is supposed to be a new KW model coming out soon and MILLIS is getting one of the first off the line to test.

So delivered to Menards DC in Shelby, IA. Wednesday morning and got the famous "no loads available" message on the QC!!! Sat for 24 hours before getting a load out of Shelby, IA. to deliver to Menards store in Marion, IL.... Currently getting unloaded now then will see if I get anything good to run for the weekend...if not then its going to be a very small payday!!

 

have a kid in training to drive,just curious about how much money they can expect to make with the current economy,and has anyone figured out how that works out per hour?

 

That information is in the forums somewhere, a word to the wise, you don't want to know first year earnings. If he's single, few if any bills, he'll be fine. Second year income is better due to options available for going with a carrier that will pay for that experince he will have.

 

Congrats Sheff - Be safe!

 

Don't know if I should start a thread or not (let me know and I'll move it), I know it has been talked about "how much money do you spend on the road?", but my question is:

How much do you spend during training? school portion then out with trainer?

I know once you have your own truck you stock to your liking but I'm pretty sure trainers don't want 8 walmart bags full of food in there truck LOL.

Just trying to make final preparations. Thanks guys.

 

This crossed my mind too. I think I will be on a water and cracker diet for 6 weeks

Seriously!

 

Might of miss this but could anyone give me info on mills truck school. Thanks

 

I know you did not just ask this question...Pick a thread and start reading...
