    So I just got a call from ole WE for flatbed.
    Starting at 88cpm with mileage bonuses for everything over 1700.
    Home for a 34 every weekend. That’s seems almost too good to be true. I’m at 50cpm now.

    Careful, they are horrible with directions. They will stick you any time you need a service call or what ever as well.

    I have a feeling they are counting your gross weekly pay/miles. Very sneaky imo. Your real cpm with them as company driver will be in the 47~cpm range. But when they add tarp pay, stop pay, bonuses and even perdiem. It can easily be in the 80~cpm range

    I suggest you research Western express. There's a lot of information on this site about them. Good luck
