    I live in VA was hoping to find a OTR or regional company that does get this average pay. Thanks

    Line haul drivers make that and more.
    I think @ethos was making more than that pulling tankers coast to coast.

    Ethos drove for Trimac Transportation, coast to coast.
    Line haul isn't exactly regional, but it's easy, terminal to terminal/drop & hook.
    Many of those drivers make $90K - $100K per year.
    @KaoMinerva drives for Estes line haul and can give details.
