    The average is probably what they told you is. How many miles you get, or want, is up to you.

    I am hoping they let me run hard. But should be interesting I figured start out refridgerated then move to flat bed later.

    How long until you made the switch and does prime pay tarp pay. Plus I am kind of tired of flatbeds for the moment the local job I worked before I was 21 was flats.

    We waited til we did our upgrade to get our own trucks, then went back out with a flatbed trainer for 30 days. Prime pays a $50 minimum for pulling out a tarp. Have seen higher than that.

    So after the initial training for 4 weeks with a trainer you went out flat bed if I got that correct?
