Right now getting that many miles will be tough. When it picks up you can do that much and more. In general, expedite is overpopulated with vans.

As far as what company to choose, have you talked to Thompson? I was with them for over 6 years, until they eliminated the U.S. part of the fleet. They have some van O/O's that have been with them a long time, many in excess of 10 years. They would be worth talking to.

average starting wage per mile in canada is .80 to .85, why would i go for .70, thats just greed on these companies.
