Applying for a linehaul position. Automatic trucks? Decent miles as a new guy?

You can make as much as you want to make if you’re willing to run hard. Plenty of freight out here. All the new trucks are autos but there are still plenty of manuals out there and you need to be able to drive one. Out 5 days and home 2. You can run extra days if you’d like. Should be able to make $100k without killing your self fairly easily now as good as they pay now. Being new or highly tenured has no bearing as far as miles on the extraboard.
The thing about Estes! They’ll run you and put you up in a motel. They don’t have to have that truck back every morning so if you wanna make a lot of money, this is the place to be but you have to work for it! They will run you empty and most of the time, won’t leave you sitting at home because of seniority issues unless it gets very slow
