At 5 k takehome weekly on 2$/mi assuming they only take a 20% cut for their insurance authority etc before your payment
Then assuming your truck/trailer payments and insurance only run you 500/400/400 per month (300$/month for a 15k truck, 13k trailer, minimal bobtail etc insurance)
And assuming your mileage is about 12 mpg and you have an okay fuel card, thats about .28$/mi
Taxes set aside at 10% (of net)
And maint set aside at 10% (of net)
Then you run 3125 miles weekly
And of your paycheck, you actually only have a takehome of 2825, and i guarantee that your truck/trailer isnt that cheap and doesnt get that mpg.
If on the other hand you say you actually bring home after all expenses 5k, then youre just blatantly lying, you dont have the hours to legally do that weekly at 2$/miLite bug, broke down plumber, NorthEastTrucker and 7 others Thank this. -
