Hello to everyone!!!

Hi, I'm new on the board forum and been lurking around here for some time to get ideas or questions I had written down on paper. Anyways I'm wondering what route and what road to go LOL!!! I'm on FedEx C.C.,Tri-State,and Panthers list for owners to call for drivers. As of today my phone has been ringing off the wall. I havn't call no back yet busy written my questions to ask and see what is what with each owners and etc.

I'm looking for the sprinter vans and stright truck and not really wanting to do the T/T

Sprinter vans I know and see it's up and down but more sitting of right now I think. I would love to go to the vans. It would be nice in a 2 week time at least make $700 and up but that looks very slim I think unless someone knows something I don't know LOL!!!

Stright Truck being a solo driver it seems like owners want teams which I understand because it's all about HOS and $

I don't want to team if I would it would be a family member I know of but havn't gotten into that subject heavy. I have beat around the bush to that family member and havn't gotten anything out that might light a strike.

Any thoughts of what ride to go into and the top 3 names I threw up in the air ?

Thanks!!!

Re: Hello to everyone!!!

First of all there Nascar, there are wayyyy more fishies in the pond than the ones you mentioned. Way more!

If all you are looking for is 3.5C a week, then those that can't get that done in ANY type of equipment, is trying to die, or, is already dead. Your expectations are not unrealistic. But, many don't find that pot "o" gold. Because.

Yeah, I definitely cannot agree on this order. Team might make you more if it is with your spouse. What you take home is what matters. Really, it has more to do with strategy than the number of peeps behind the wheel. But, feel free to go on believing what they told you at orientation..
