Trucking company job postings–Truth vs lies

Depends on what side of the country you're on.

And how long you've been with the company.

 

Right. I know experienced drivers with impeccable records that are getting 60 cpm pulling dry van and running 3200 miles per week. Companies want the best drivers they can get so 50-60 cpm is the going rate now for OTR drivers with lots of experience

 

I’m even seeing posts in the jobs section of this forum offering that much. 45 cpm was the going rate 10 years ago.

 

I have driven all. Been doing this 32 years. Past four in tanker. Stay put. The better money is in Tanks. Find another company. I’m at my current company 2years and have grossed over 80k both years sleeping in truck average 2-3 nights a week and home on weekends. I will never driver anything but tank again

 

I'm home every night and full weekends off.
