Liam neeson is out to find Ken's black list of fishing holes. Ken, do you put a golden star on your Wal-Mart map for the ones that have the most loose change in the parking lot? lol

Met a fleet owner who offered me a job driving a yellow box truck lol. There was a sleeper and 14 ft of cargo space left. 35 cents per mile all miles paid even empty moves and dead head to pick up. No log books no weight stations. Maximum payload they take 5500 but usually it avgs 2500lb range. He claimed that I should avg no less than 2500 miles a week.

What do you guys think?

Have the Fleet Owner show you an empty Scale Ticket and ask for the GVW.
So...the 2500 miles per week I'm assuming he's meaning those are the Loaded Miles @ .35 cpm that'd be $875. Lets's say you DH an average of 100 miles per day, 7 days per week, so that another 700 miles @ .35cpm...that'd add another $245.
$1120 per week on a GOOD Week, and does the Owner cover ALL Fuel, Tolls and Maintenance?
