Am I getting screwed??

The three hour daily commute alone makes this position a deal breaker. A local job in or around Detroit should pay $250 to $350 a day gross. Keep your commute under 45 minutes each way. You should look at hauling groceries, Foodservice, fuel, LTL and the auto industry.

Doing local work for an OTR company is not really a job. It's just something to do. Even at hourly pay, it doesn't pay that great. If you've got a year, then you can find other local/regional gigs pretty easily.
