    So what your trying to tell us is, that you and
    Your team partner are both making.66 cpm.
    So your splitting 1.32 cpm running team for
    Covenant.

    I don't think so, you splitting .66 cpm
    Which means your making.33 cpm and getting 3000
    Miles a week.

    I could be wrong though.
    Maybe team pay has went into the stratosphere.
    I think you got this whole thing mixed up.

    They’re running 6k miles a week, so he’s getting 66cpm for 3k miles, or 33cpm for 6k miles.

    If the FedEx deal is on a dedicated I would take that but if it’s running wild then I’d probably just stay where you’re at.

    On that account, you're driving closer to 6k miles per week, at .66 per mile split. Plus benefits - good health, dental, vision. Us matching on a 401k or Roth. Plus life. Plus repayment of school loan if you started with covenant. Plus a truck 350k miles or less. Yeah... its good money.

    we split miles not 66cpm pay rate so we average 6000 miles a week total which I take 3000 miles to be paid at .66cpm.

    I hope you like a jail cell

    actually you have it wrong I don't split my 66cpm we split miles which we get 6000 miles per work which works out to 3000 paid miles at 66cpm.

    correct

    I drive cascada freightliner 2020 with 300k miles and fortunately APU is working. Also I started with swift transportation doing heavy haul in washington state.

    Huh? I just offered you burial services. I'll even say some nice words for you. You said you don't care what happens when you die, just donate your organs, right? Well I got a pocket knife and some ziplock bags. I can drop them off at the local cat food outfit, and I'll use the life insurance money to buy a new headache rack!!

    Covenant offered me 75 cents a mile to train so I think op is correct.
    6000 miles a week why would you need an apu.

    So, on average, how much do you gross every week?. You didn't reply to that part of my post.

    If it's $1900+ every week then you are doing very well.

    I would stay put, unless you don't like teaming which I can understand. $1900 per week isn't enough to get me to live in a truck with another person.
