I haven't updated in a while since nothing particularly new has happened. We have been running like crazy with the run-up to Xmas, delivering 4 loads a week. Should be tapering off in the next week or two.

As for pay, it hasn't necessarily been higher than I was making the last couple of months OTR but it is much more steady. On a full week of 3,000+ miles I would make $1,000+ but with my home time of 3 days every three weeks it wasn't consistent. 3 days home times is really more like 4-5 days not running depending on how many miles get you home and out again making for 2 good weeks and one crappy week.

My year to date average when I started with Dollar Tree was $750/week before taxes which includes 25cpm to start and all the raises along the way. I am usually making more than that per week now. Some weeks in the beginning I was slightly under, but I was paying my dues all over again. Once they realized that I actually wanted to work and didn't mind sweating and bleeding, they started running me more which equates to more money in my pocket.

I am very happy with the home time that this account has afforded me and the pay has become better with experience. I haven't run the numbers, but from what the accountant, Wifey, has told me I am pretty well averaging after taxes what I was YTD before taxes OTR or better.

Also, I switched just as Plus1 was being rolled out, so I don't know how that would have affected my pay but from what I have read and heard it would not have been pretty...
