    Actually, I said I grossed "a little over 70K". I made $1440.19 per week. I ran a weekly turn from Detroit to Brownsville, TX. I picked up a loaded trailer in Detroit Monday evening and pulled into Brownsville Wednesday evening. Live unload/load @ 7 A.M. Thursday morning & ran as fast as my governed truck would go (65 mph) to get through Houston before the afternoon rush hour. Dropped my loaded trailer in Detroit mid-afternoon on Saturday.

    The company calculated it as a bit under 3,500 miles @ 40 cpm but we are paid vacation pay on a weekly basis, rather than actually receive a paid vacation.
