    mph is about 2000 miles per week all you can get on average or is it possible to get more miles if you want run harder... Oh and dont take that to mean I dont think you run hard...lol... Poorly worded I guess but hope you get my point....

    I started during the slow period, but I've been told things pickup in March. Should bump up a few hundred miles. I am older and 2,000 miles a week feels fine. Haha

    lol.. I get it... Im planning to retire from the fire service and get back into driving. I drove in the 90s. Regional flatbeds for a little company here in Florida so if I can make $700-1000/week plus my pension Id be really enjoying my weekends home..lol

    No problem. Glad to help. Honestly, if I was in the hiring zone I may have went to Maverick or TMC. Equipment is newer, but CT has been good to me. I can't complain.

    Im not in their hiring zones either. I was thinking CT or Cypress here in Florida just so I can get home every weekend to start. Im thinking after a year or so Id start working on getting my own authority and going O/O but that means more time out and harder work but Im looking for a challenge so we will see how it goes.

    Mid go CT over Cypress. That is just my opinion from what I have seen. Not bad mouthing anyone at all. As for O/O, I thought about it, but I'm looking to permanently retire in 10 years, by a camper home and follow the weather. Haha
