    Wow, I didn't realize that crst malone doesn't recognize local class A as recent experience. He said you have to have otr. So I guess I am screwed to go back to flatbed with no recent otr.

    I was wondering what you’re averaging per mile? And do you primarily use Malone’s load board or other ones?

    Good paying freight out of Detroit and a great agent up there. You could do very well

    I rarely run for less than 2.00, average probably 2.50. But you might have to deadhead 150 or more miles to get a load. Use the board and call the agents. It's mostly figuring out where the loads are that work for you.
     
    oldog1984 and Traveling Jones Thank this.

    That’s not to shabby. What part of the country are you running in?
