    How can you even break even at those rates? That's just terrible. A dollar three a mile? And only .44 FSC? Are they keeping the rest of the FSC? Just can't see how anyone, owning a truck, could make it on those rates. Unless there was no truck payment but still, that's terrible to be an O/O or even L/O, running for that low of rates.

    Terrible compared to what exactly? Surely not your average CO driver or O/O.

    Hmmm is that why i netted over 2200 last week? Yes, net. And over 2k. One week. My average has been 1500-1900. And im on sni choice, pick all my loads, run how i want, no dispatcher, no one telling me how long to run for or how long to stay home. Point is, there are good LP deals, i would never ever lease from a company that didnt let me choose my freight. Biggest mistake IMO.

    I polish my wheels myself, its hard work depending how dirty they are, itll take a few hours the first time but after that i just keep up on mine, maybe polish once a week or 2. And they stay clean

    I'm looking into l/O. I want to run how I want and be my own boss. Plus the possibility of seeing my kids more.

    Check out Schneider. It's the only lease I'd do if I felt like being a slave to a one sided contract.
