    The types of miles matters. Local driving is usually city traffic and congestion driving or simply stressful and more dangerous. Open road driving is much better, and if you can get dedicated drops and hooks outside of any major cities. What type of driving do you want Regional, otr, or local driving? Negatives and positives to each

      I’ve been with swift for 4 years already and before that it was 1 year with Schneider. I would suggest going to an outside school if you can because any mega carrier cdl program make you sign a 1 year contract and they make you go over the road. If you decided to leave before the year they make you pay I believe anywhere from 7000-10000 for the school. If you get your CDL elsewhere swift offers tuition reimbursement

      Im not sure its all depending on what part of the country you live in and what’s available in your area. Mostly any mega carrier that you join will all have automatic trucks in the fleet. I would suggest just researching every company to see what suits your needs.

    700 every check they take out you said? Or every month? Cause 700 taken out is a big difference bruv!! You’d have averaged like 2100/wk.

      ​@@TruckingwithTorresif it slows down you could drive for a fedex contractor local and get a dedicated route dont have too climb senoirity like other ltl companies and you will make the same as you are now but year round so 1600-2k gross about 1100-1700 net probably im sure you can find a contractor paying 70cpm with benefits.. i hear rl carriers got a nice raise and pays good they have it easy if you have all your endorsements .. but you probably already know all this that ltl is where the money is consistently and tankers.. but now and days everyone paying 80-100k plus so you have options if work gets slow is my point lol..
