    So? Many O/O don't make crap.

    What's so hard to believe about my income?

    Because there's no way you can work 6 days one week and 4 the next in LTL and make 85+K. Unless you're making over $50/hr, which no one to my knowledge in LTL pays. Cap is around $30.

    Plus, you're defensive, which tells me and everyone else you're lying and have a guilty conscious. If you actually made that much, you wouldn't care what others thought.

    There are companies that pay that. Those companies haul specialized freight such as cryogenics, placarded hazmat, and oversized loads. I don't know of any dry van company that pays that much under a W-2. Boy Howdey MIGHT be an IC.

    Not very good at simple math are ya?

    One week I run 3366 miles, the next week I run 2244. I make an average of $1683 off the miles alone. But of course that doesn't include my clock time. I'm paid hourly of $24 for delays, drop&hooks, making and breaking sets, fueling, and breakdown times.
