    Ok are all you guys owner ops or are some cpm drivers? Is .54 cpm good? I really do t know. This company seems to try to keep you trucking and they try to make it up to ya when you get screwed so that’s all pluses they pay loaded or empty and every mile according to rand McNally tarp pay boarder pay and lots of little bonuses no minimum like I have seen other places talk about and they will try to make it up to you with layover pay which I have only seen once repairs get done ..... Just wondering what other flatbeders doing out there I am home generally every weekend also but after this weeks crappy start I am pick I g up a Wyoming run tomorrow but was my choice. Any other company drivers out there have any good ones

    You poor soul.

    Whitetail is good, Axis deer is phenomenal. Buffalo is great, Antelope is real good too. Goat, lamb, sheep, rabbit and dove is all real #### good when cooked properly. I grew up eating mutton. Haven't had it 20yrs though. Notice my grand dad died and my grandma Geneva moved to IL, then died.

    You’re the only one that needs to be satisfied and this whole equation ,if you’re happy I would say good deal from what I see looks like you’re a kick butt hard-working truck driver .I think anybody would be proud to have you but like I say if you’re happy all’s well.

    Yeah i was making .42 cpm when i started with swift 3 years ago then the last small company i was with was .48 cents . .54 cent is good. But flatbed it could be tough getting those miles. Does ur company have percentage program ? If they do i would look into it. But really if ur happy with what ur making then thats good. The only way to make more in flatbed is get into oversize stuff
