Give location for better idea. Each has there own needs for wild/extra driver. Ran wild nationally 5 years. Know locations that are out and back, triangles, daily, or variation. More flexable driver, the more opportunity. Paid mileage, plus extras. the last year I ran wild made 100K, (2 pay raises ago) yet I ran wherever and stayed out up to 8 weeks. Off time varied to my needs at home. (Up to a week off). Don't know starting wage now. I now run 5 day schedule. (Home daily) 518 mileage, + drops/hooks/fuel, Minimum is 85K. Did 96k last year. 70K to 100+ at our term. Depends on run.

newblue87 and I spoke privately. Talked in length and answered his questions. He is a seasoned hand, and understands/realizes what it will take to run extra/wild. Believe he will be a good addition by his attitude.

Hope they have the good stuff to test. lol. Some test takers have no humor when asked what is being tried. Been doing these for 31 years, starting in military, so gotta have a little humor.

$1.50 per hook/drop.A set if you break or hook both trailer's pay's $6.So if you bring in a set, break both&Hook another set it pay's $12
well all i can say is make sure everything on your app. is right. i have seen drivers get let go because they didnt put something on there app and tried and hide it. we had a p&d guy that was working for 2 weeks didnt put something on his app. was a very short job for him.
