    Just curious how much you guys make. Everyone seems to brag about how much they make but the figures show the average pay is around $51k a year now for a driver OTR or Regional. I'm well over that average. How many of you make $60k or better a year?

    $60K+ Home all but 2 nights / month, average 300 miles / day, no weekends or nights unless I want them. Oh, and benefits - medical, dental, 401(k), vacation and holidays. Usually have 20-30 hours left on my 70 at the end of the week.

    Considering gross doesn't mean anything, what difference does it make? Net is the ONLY number that matters.
