It's more of a hands on Owner Operator scenario here compared to Prime where a lease operator is basically a company driver who pays for the equipment and extra cost. I will have to hand it to Rob Low looking back he was one smart man, the way he has drivers paying for all his cost of running a trucking company and sitting back making tons of profit. I would be willing to bet that Prime is one of the most profitable trucking companies out there. He has people pay for his Equipment, Road Tax, Reefer Fuel, IFTA Tax, Maintenance Cost, Tolls, Fuel, Excess Mileage Fees (A myth he claims they get charged, that he pockets 85% of the time) Never gives back the left over maintenance funds if a driver leaves that they pay into ever mile they drive. Yep I have to give him credit he's smart.

don't know about prime but england charges .14 for mileage, PLUS .07 for maint. fund. PER MILE. and don't get there maint. fund back.

talk about supporting the company. i feel for them fleecers.

NICE!!!

At $1900/week, you'll do WELL. How many miles did you do for that much scratch? Fuel costs? Etc?
