i have been with arnold for 2 1/2 months and i can honestly say that they are not bad. i have been running any were from 22,000-26,500 a week all my checks range from 880,00-920,00 a week. the only problem that i have been running into is bad dispatch loads. mostly those CONWAY, loads my DM. is new and she's been running me crazy.. i run north east region i don't like the auto truck's and us express have there name all over the paper work my truck broke down and i got back in 2 day's ARONLD don't mess around when it come's to break down.it make take 2week's to get that break down pay. but they will put you in a hotel of your choice while your truck is getting worked on.
this only my experience with ARONLD. i can not speak for no one else. just for today. i havent been home yet cause of the miles i have been getting i have been out there for 9weeks with no home time my DM, ask me all the time;WHEN ARE YOU GOING HOME???? so im taking my first home time in 9weeks 5/27-6/4. i was able to bank 4grand running long weeks out.
if you dont mind auto trucks then you may want to check ARNOLD out.there working for me.. JUST FOR TODAY........

9 weeks in the north east regional?!!!!!!!!! Why dont u run long haul and make some money. Now dont take this personal im not bashing you but $880 to $920 and your living in a truck???????? That pay sucks! I make $1000+ and go home every night. If im going to live in a truck pay will need to be $1350+ every week or it aint happening.
-
I think your mileage is in error.
-
how do you do that?
-
How do I do what? $1000+ a week and home every night? I get paid hourly. $17.77 hr. straight time, $26.66 hr time and a half. Ialso get time and a half after 8hrs, so if i need to take a day off I dont lose my OT for the other days. I only need 51 hrs. to make $1000. As far as $1350+ to live in a truck you dont see it happing so you dont see me livin in the truck!

I'm sleeping in the truck because it comes with o.t.r. trucking.. if i were able to be home every night then that's not o.t.r. trucking,, i'm a local driver!!! and i should of said i make $920.00 a week.after taxes...so to have to sleep in my truck every night doe'snt bother me for $920.00 week..I'm from NYC, i hit so many local company's if i was able to be a local driver i would be doing it but because the way the economy is there not hiring local..so o.t.r. is were it at for me for now!!! and,ARNOLD,,, is not a bad company to work for o.t.r. they don't stress me no forced dispatch, they get me home when i put in for home time. not bad...

no my mileage is'nt wrong.. right now in the north east aronld is running anywhere from 19,000 to 28,000 miles a week.. im averaging anywhere from 22,000 to 28,050 a week ....after taxes ( NYC TAXES ) im bringing home $850.00 to $975.00 a week.. i dont think thats bad for someone who was unemployed for 3months..you tell me????? so yeah ARNOLD isnt all bad..
-
Yes your milage is very wrong!!!!!!!!!!! 19,000 to 28,000 a week!!!!!!! Thats 2 months worth of miles in a week!!!!!!!!! If you drove 167 MPH for every hour in a week,
168, you could run 28,000 mile a week. You got a rocket straped 2 your ###?Last edited: Jun 11, 2010

Drop some of your zeros and it might be believable.
In order to do 28000 miles in a 70 driving week, doing the driving only, no fuel, pti or any other nonsense, your truck would have to drive 400 mph.Last edited: Jun 11, 2010
