Mike..why aren't you doing system hauls right now, versus doing the regional hauls you have been doing?

I have been going were they have been sending me,I also think that if you can load and deliver everyday you can make more money.

Hello,

I will be starting out in the biz later this year and want to keep my options open. I live in Terre Haute, IN. Is this a good area to get in and out of? I dont mind being gone a few days. But, I dont want it to be a hassle everytime I want/need to get home. I have looked into Prime as my 1st carrier since it appears they will take you with 0 experience. Any input is apprecitated.

Thanks,
Jay

Prime wouldn't take me because of the wheelbase on my truck was 270"
Our dispatch would like us to stay out 7-10 days,but that hasn't happened much to me,unless I wanted it to.

I-70 is a very good lane to run,I would think that you would not have a problem running through there alot.

The 3 companies I suggest you check out are Dana/Suttles/LiquidTransport,Superior Carriers,and Henniff
