I've run team as a fill in for this company. When the week was over, I really felt used up and couldn't imagine doing it again for another week. I'm a very light sleeper and don't sleep well in a moving truck. Team may pay more but for me it was half of .61 cents for every mile because I felt every mile. I really didn't make more money either. Might be because I'm a but all I did on extraboard was run south Florida and back 95% of the time.That's my whole goal, payoff my house ASAP then I can be like you and work 35 hrs weekly (if u want to call it work)
Running team sounds very appealing, as far as the $$ and not sitting in a hotel for 20+ hrs. Ran into a team this week and they said they each gross $90k!! I'll probably just stay put though, like I said I've run team before and didn't love it
I can't remember the last time I used my sunpass, nothing but northeast for me for the last couple of months. Gotta love hitting every terminal in jersey in one night, don't know who I pissed off in central. Guess next time I talk to them I'll give em your name, maybe then I'll get down there and stay there all week.
They leave it up to the driver.Who decides your running mate? Just wondering, i was thinking if the company did that wouldnt sit well. Just for tbe fact of puttibg my life in another mans hands while im sleeping and hes driving, or do thay let the man with the highest senority pick his running mate.....

in Chicago you do choose your team driver. You will not drive teams unless you want to.===== I wouldn't do it.==== No team ever lasted in Chicago. They do not know how to use them!

If I have a co driver can we get hired as a team?
Go online and apply or apply at your nearest Estes Terminal.... It would be better to apply at your hometown Estes Terminal so you can shake the TM's hand and meet him...
Good question. Back when they did all the layoffs, many terminals were cutting drivers even though several were hiring, including Denver. I know a guy that transferred there to avoid getting put on the streets. I doubt they would hire a team from a non hiring terminal to fill the gap at another.Thx, Checked out the website says there not hiring in my area. I believe they do hire teams at the Den terminal but not sure. So do you have to get hired at that terminal? Or can they hire you at any area but run you home in your area? Thanks for any info.
