2k-2,500 miles a week

{"text":"How realistic is it to get 2k-2,500 a week at prices over $1.60 a mile? I be trying but keep falling a little short of the 2k. so far I haven't hauled anything under $1.60 a mile. what be throwing off my calculations is these 300-500 mile loads that can be done in one day, but requires next day delivery,  slowing up booking a same day load once I drop off. driving 1k-2k miles on one trip is a waste of time in my mind. They be wanting those type of loads delivered in 3-4 days, with low prices. After fuel expenses on a trip that long, it adds up to the same amount you'll get taking a 600-700 mile trip with next day delivery. I use load boards to get my loads. I feel like I'm looking at this trucking thing wrong. .","videos":"[]","link":"{}","pics":"[]","canComment":true,"externalShare":false}

{"replyTo":"","text":"Assuming you've figured out both your fixed and average cost per mile. I would do some research and, find shippers in your local area and, market your services to them. Then go from there. It takes time, but you will eventually keep yourself booked with loads that keep you moving.","replyToPid":0}
