I was trying to find out how many miles you guys are getting in the OTR division? Is there a major difference between the dry van and reefer divisions?
Well it all depends on who you ask. I'm an o/o for Crete but the miles are the same as when I was a company driver. You can easily turn 2800-3500 per week at Crete. A fellow Crete driver on here just got 4042 in one week! If you aren't getting paid $ then something is wrong. I'd seriously reconsider pulling a reefer, but that's just my opinion.

dry freight is about 2000 percent less pain in the rectal area.
Exactly. Reefers have less drop 'n hooks, trailer washouts, jump starting the reefer in the freezing cold, fueling the reefer, taking temp every 2 hours,
grocery warehouses :evil: should I keep going?

What states did you see the most? What is the length of haul like?
Well I came out of the house on the 8th. I've ran from IA to GA, from GA to TX, from TX to UT, UT back to TX

Crete says they are 75-80 percent drop and hook but Shaffer doesn't say anything about that.
I'm guessing that is pretty dang accurate. Crete has a large freight base with large customers. I love Kimberly CLark and Wal-Mart (DC) loads myself.
Let me know if you have more questions.
