How much can a swift driver make with two years experience ?

I have a year and a half in and when I run solo I average about $900-1000 per week running OTR. Depending on how you run and how much time off you require it would range from $45K to $50K per year.

 

Your pay me depend on how many cars you hit and docks you damage.the more you have the better the pay apparently

 

lol, $40k a year doing OTR with 2 years experience is not good.

 

Did not say it was you still a troll tho..... Marry Christmas

 

and you must be a driver for Swift

anyway I'm just saying it the way it is, that's being real not trolling.
OP is a new driver, I'm sure he'd appreciate some truth.

 

I did tell him the truth around 40k ish where was the lie in that?

and if you really want to help the OP like you said.
the little sad face is not helping.
then give OP some reasoning why 40k is bad. Give some examples of companies with two years experience a driver that makes more 40 K a year. granted the op should be doing his research. I guess that's why he asked the question.

 

You must have a good DM or something. ..

 

I've found that my DM has little to do with it.
You are planned out of the local area terminal and the DM has little to do with it.

Where you are, how many drivers have earlier PTA's, your available hours, your driver ranking - there are many things that influence the loads you are offered.

I'd like to know why 40K for a second year driver is such a bad deal.
40K for any second year person in most jobs would be considered pretty good.

 

Because thats what a first year driver in the 1990's made.

 

Well there's a good idea. Instead of driving freight shakers we should hop in some deloreans and head back to 1990 and make some real money.

I love how everyone likes to relive the past and compare it to today. The fact is we live in the present and we have to remember that. It doesn't matter if a driver made $1.5 mil/year back in the '90s because we aren't in the '90s.

I'm not saying that we should accept what's given to us if it doesn't meet our personal standards, but comparing it to the past isn't going to change a thing.

When I was a company driver with swift I started making $1,000/week right after training, I realize my experience isn't typical, but if you apply yourself you can achieve greatness just about anywhere.
