3500+ Miles a week. Possible? Where?

Alright, here is the situation. Your feedback is appreciated. I have two drivers that work great as a team. One lives in Michigan and the other lives in Arizona. They need a minimum of 3500 miles a week to reach their goals and be successful as drivers. They are willing to be out 3-4 weeks at a time.

The truck they have is a 2005 Freightliner, class 8 straight truck with an extended sleeper, generator, GVW 33,000lbs but fitted with a tag axle for heavier loads, 22ft box, 325HP Mercedes engine and a lift gate can be added if necessary.

The like to run east coast/west coast runs (of course) Do you have any suggestions or recommendations on the best expediter to run with to meet their goals. This is going to be the 1st of 5 trucks we are purchasing. We want to establish a long term mutually beneficial relationship with one company and not have to jump from company to company every other month. Your feedback is appreciated.

Best regards and thanks!
