You should be able to make about 600 a week with half those miles. I wouldnt bank on 3,000 but it is possible.

Would that be Take home??? Do alot of the guys solo in a Straight Truck Sit??? Another question... Will I have to take a road test before a truck is given to me???

You should do fine. Will you sit? At different times but more likely after the first of the year.
I don't believe they do road tests on straight trucks.

I would suggest using 1800-2000 miles per week as a more realistic figure. Some weeks will do much better and some weeks won't do as well. I would expect to make closer to $600 per week than per month. Good luck.

Yea it will limit you some but not that much, the numbers LDB quoted are about what you can bank on, possible to do more but its really up to you and how long you want to stay out.
