Yep. I lose maybe 50 miles per 1000mi trip with that system. All miles are paid the same though, empty or loaded. We did just receive a .03 cpm raise and a guarantee was recently implemented of $900/950/1000 depending on experience.

They are based out of Wisconsin, so you'll run a lot out of there. We have a dedicated client that runs about 25 loads a day out of home base. I would say maybe 70% of the loads are east of the Mississippi River. Their other terminals are Chicago, Atlanta, Central FL and East PA. You can definitely see those are based around their primary lanes. But we do have Cali runs, TX runs, really all 48 states.Chinatown, Speed_Drums and JForce28 Thank this. -
Your time with a trainer will be anything from a week to a month. Just depends on how much help you need and the trainers schedule. I was out with mine for a week only and done. Others have been out 5-6 weeks. The trainer portion is usually halfway between your training center time. I was out with a trainer after 3 weeks. Once you finish, you come back to the training center and continue working until they graduate you. If you come in with some driving experience, but less than a year, you're there for 4 weeks, still out with a trainer too during some point.Speed_Drums and JForce28 Thank this. -
This sounds like a school. Is that what it is? I didn't know WEL had one if so.

Yes, they have a training center. Started about a year ago. 8 weeks for recent grads, 4 weeks for less than 12 months experience, or a day for experienced drivers coming in.
JForce28 Thanks this.
