No bonuses but thanks anyways and good luck if you can get a job with us its a job for life, we have a very very small turn over of drivers and they very seldom hire so it is a hard job to get and not like other jobs in the industry that are a dime a dozen

our new guys all made over 60K last year - and that was with 2 months of lay offs (not counting unemployment).

our guys with 3-7 years all make between 70K and 100K depending on how hard they run - and it takes about 8 years to get a dedicated "bid" - and they range from 65K to 100K+

company work - union bennies - no scams - dues are about 60 bucks a month - no hassle from anyone - and the work is easy.

(home in your own bed from 7 nights a week to 3 nights a week depending...)

ABF / UPS / YELLOW / ROADWAY / HOLLAND etc etc.

from the aag website:

"Men and women who haul cars are among the highest paid drivers in the industry, averaging $48,000 a year with the potential to earn much more!"

if you avg. 48k then ya gotta assume there are the other half making less...

click the driver resource center for info and applications.

There are drivers who make much less than others remember we are union and our pay is based on productivity, that being said, I am 41 and in good shape for my age and I am able to be on the higher side of the scale along with the majority of younger drivers and at our barn we have guys that have 30+ years in and are much older than me and are not very productive so with about 3500 drivers an average of 48K is excellant
