Kivi Bro's Open Deck done Right

I wish we did more engines but unfortunately they don’t pay nearly what they should. We do a lot of raw materials and finished parts ready for assembly. We also haul a lot of elevators and broker freight to fill in the gaps.

 

If it pays great..it’s no issue..

 

The 85k number is what I consider reasonable for a driver just coming to spd. I’m one of those “top drivers” (not tooting my own horn, just is what it is) I’ve grossed 75k so far this year. My next check on the 10th should add another 6k to that number. We’ve also only been on this pay program since April for my team. We aren’t a perfect company, we tarp nearly everything, our customers can be quite demanding and have very high expectations, a lot of our freight is beyond fragile and extremely expensive. But I’m confident we have a good group of leaders moving the company in the right direction. Now if we could get guys to do more then 7k miles a month and stop milking the salary program that would be awesome.

 

It doesn’t though. I spoke to couple who leased to Southern Pride last spring. They were spending 4 days in their huge fancy truck at the Peelot in Haslet Tx. By the time they made their ungodly truck payment and all their expenses they weren’t banking what I do a year as a company driver for a private fleet.

 

I am a very skeptical person by nature, I was at a point of exploration when I changed jobs, confident in my trucking /open deck skills and OTR knowledge coming in to SPD. Bottom line if you can run, are efficient in your trip planning and securement, safety,and HOS compliance are second nature to your trucking style, this pay program is interesting, and can be very lucrative. Coming into this pay program "green" to open deck work would not be recommended by me. I have talked to a couple of drivers since I started and personally recommend a couple of years through all 4 seasons first. This pay program is unique and rewards performance like no other I have ever seen.

 

If he's that bad, don't follow him. Pretty easy for me to figure out....

 

Some of the few remaining Moore guys that stuck it out after the Wylie merger grossed over $100k last year which is ALMOST enough to put up with Wylie's b.s.

 

His continued criticism of @supersnackbar is unwarranted, we've heard it a hundred times @BM 58

Give it up and put SSB on Ignore if Ya don't care for his Posts
