    I have a payment of around $1200 a week and that includes truck payment, insurance, medical insurance, and also escrow. I like to run 3000 -3400 miles a week. I only go home around once a month. I am currently making .94 a mile and fuel surcharge is not 100%. I am not bound by a lease to any company. I am currently looking at Schneider percentage program for o/o and also Landstar. Can anyone let me know who would be the better company? Thanks!

    Look for a smaller company with less bs and a higher percentage.....less miles and more money where i,m at we got 40 trucks pulling mostly direct freight averaging 1.95 to the truck at 10k miles a month but i do pay for a trailer and reefer fuel etc....1200 is a pretty high fixed goal to meet a week

    Look at Farm2Fleet also.
    One driver with a business background on this forum posted he researched Schneider, Landstar, Farm2Fleet & chose Farm2Fleet. I'm not an 0/0, I'm just posting what I read this week.
