    You can call them, but they do "like" to see a year of L/O or O/O experience but just call and talk to Andrea P. Any more questions you have I will do my best to answer K, have a great day.

    My first load was a P&G out of Green Bay to Ohio,don't know about any certain clients. My next load for Monday is a BASF(Hazmat) load to a P&G facility in the North East.

    I have been busy, I was trying to get last load in before the cut off(midnight Sat),actually got two loads in by the cutoff.:biggrin_2556: I have not had time to post for a little bit because of fixing my truck(1.5 hrs) not bad for first time replacing leveling valve:biggrin_25525: Then running late load down to Wal Mart to squeeze it in before deadline, setting up for new load on Monday that will pay to the truck $2624.00 for 3 days work. Then try to get another couple short loads in before next cutoff.

    Also I have some accurate insurance numbers here;
    Bobtail= $35.00 a month
    Occ/Acc=$154.00 a month
    Physical Damage is based off value of truck these are values and per month;
    0-10,000=58.00
    10,001-15,000=87.00
    15,001-22,500=113.00
    22,501-27,500=125.00
    27,501-32,500=139.00
    32,501-37,500=150.00
    37,501-42,500=162.00(mine)
    42,501-47,500=172.00
    47,501-52,500=185.00
    52,501-57,500=191.00
    57,501-62,500=206.00
    62,501-67,500=216.00
    67,501-72,500=226.00
    72,501-77,500=239.00
    77,501-82,500=252.00
    82,501-87,500=266.00
    87,501-92,500=278.00
    92,501-97,500=310.00
    97,501-102,500=313.00
    102,501-107,500=316.00
    107,501-112,500=347.00
    112,501-117,500=365.00
    117,501-122,500=375.00
    122,501-130,500=390.00
    130,501-140,500=420.00
    140,501-150,000=450.00

    These rates may vary by a few dollars depending on circumstances.

    Loan GAP=27.00 a month
    Physical Damage deductible buy back= 19.40 a month(where you don't have a deductible for repairs(windshield,side glass,etc..)

    Bodily Injury/Property Damage Deductible buy back=17.17 a month

    Cargo Deductible buy back=6.85 a month

    Personal Property Insurance;
    2000.00= 8.00 a month
    3000.00= 11.00 a month
    5000.00= 14.00 a month

    OK got the load going to NE and now looking at a couple loads one going over and up NY pays $1154.00 day n half,another going to Georgia $1204.00 same day(by n by ld/dlvr time) I think I'll take the lighter(19k) one day load.

    So With that I will have $3828.00 to the truck on two loads, with a day n half left for a short run outta Georgia. Not to bad for getting my 34 in right now,starting Monday afternoon for load to NE.

    This long run is a decent run I have heard two guys running out of Main to Oregon for something like $4000.00+ a load. I will talk to one of them soon I just got his number yesterday and I will call him tomorrow while still waiting on my clock:biggrin_25515: to reset.

    I will definitely have a more accurate payout then,not a guesstament OK ,oh yeah the trucks most of em come with tripac APU's that are included in the purchase agreement. Also if you want an inverter since the tripac's that are in the trucks don't always have them masterfleet the shop at Green Bay will install a 1500w cobra inverter with wire, 100amp fuses, nice and neat for $398.51 TOTAL(cash,credit)they are separate of Schneider Finance K.

    Hey dirtsquirter;

    JCT is another good company to check into if you have 48 state experience.

    Thanks daywalker, very interesting posts, keep em coming. I have a problem I may not be able to get around so easily - I did my schooling, got my license and all the endorsements like 6 years ago! Time flies, and now since I have never used my license for driving a truck yet, I have a feeling nobody will want me until I go back to school - what a waste that will be. I spent 5000 for accredited school - I will just keep trying, thanks for the tips, be safe out there...

    I know you know you will have to do a refresher course but if you know somebody that will let you test in their truck,then you could take computer test's and driving test and try to get on a local run or small company I don't know what the minimum requirements are anymore.

    I wish you luck in whatever path you take and hope it all works out for you.

    Patience is a virtue and your best friend. :biggrin_25525:

    Thanks - I just may try to go around my problem by moving up to N Dakota, if they will let me drive up there I guess I would surely get plenty of experience pretty quick. I am no stranger to snow and ice, but I guess from what I heard that place can be a real challenge. Just don't know for sure if they will take me until I get up there. Trouble is finding a place to live with my family...
