    What kind of weight are you loading in sd? I gotta relearn things since my empty weight just went up so much.

    Thanks Pete! That's what I figured. Some weeks will be better than others depending on where you are, 34-hr resets, etc.

    That's not an achievable goal week after week. Also it seems everyone claims to do 200,000 a year here as single drivers , that simply is not the case.
     
    roshea and Chickadee Thank this.

    We've averaged $3925 per week for the 8 full weeks we have we have here at Mercer. Our goal is $4500 per week, but we are pretty happy so far. We are earning more than our previous company, working less hours, and have been able to go home a few times. We're so happy we made the move to Mercer.
     
    fivestar and Highway Sailor Thank this.

    You go Pete!

    I'm on my second week of $0. This move to TN has been a PITA. I'm glad to see someone is making money.
