Husband and wife team starting with R&L Carriers

Great to hear you made it through school and that you are about to start teaming with RL.
We hear those comments alot. We tell them that we actually like each other. We love being together. Yes we have our problems but we have always worked them out. If it gets too bad slam the curtain lol. We've come to realize that most of it is jealousy because of money. They do not like the fact we have twice the money and then some going into one account. I honestly think some don't like their spouse. Hell in the deep South you will hear that you are taking a job from a man and should stay home so another man can support his family. This has actually been said to my wife several times on the cb. Texas and Arkansas seem to be full of insecure men.

 

It's been 3 years now. We are still here and still happy. The meet driver we were meeting wwnt to days. The new meet driver is younger and insist on original turn point for the run. Its 70 miles less for us each way and run pay is 352 for 508 miles. At first we thought we'd hate it but now we get 5 to 6 hrs at home every night. We now gross 1760 each. Can't complain. Home every day and 2 full days is unheard of in team driving. We are really happy and still want to retire here. The new meet guy is on time every day. The old driver was never on time. Found out night driving was making him tired and that's why he came off the run. For now it's like clockwork and hope it stays like that. Our pay rate dropped a little but not too bad.

 

BTW we found out we were at 100percent pay after our2 year anniversary. Teams top out after 2 years. Solo takes 3 years to top out. Teams start at 91% then 94%after 90 days 97%after 1 yr and full after 2yrs. Hope this helps

 

Lol that's one of my favorite comedians Jonathan Winters playing truck driver!
