Crete seems to offer more pay than most, but do you get the miles? Like at least 2200 or so?

[buckeye]

yep I do, been averaging about 2400.

If you average 2200 you'll get called into the office real quick. I average 3000 at least. At 2200 you won't qualify for your annual pay increase.

Permission to take and use it further?

Feel free.

I average 3300-3400 miles per week when I'm on the road, if I include hometime in the calculation I average 3100 per week overall.

With that pay rate and mileage you guys say you get, it sounds like a good gig. Is there a downside or a catch?

They don't let you get home as often as some would like.

Does that mean they will run the hell out of you or, does it mean you are sitting somewhere other than home? IMO, why go OTR if you dont want to run the hell out of some miles. If they will run you, it sounds like a killer JOB!

Very little sitting at Crete unless you are doing a reset or getting your truck worked on. I'm always trying to figure out ways to squeeze another 15 minute block out of my logbook. Not because they make me, mind you.
