    What are you paying yourself to drive your truck? By your post you are probably overpaid.

    Huh.... perspective sure is a funny thing... you all took this post as a truck owner trying to find out how much he could screw a driver and I took it as a driver trying to figure out how bad he was getting screwed...:biggrin_2559:

    If he's looking for a job, then the answer to his question has little value. He will have to take what he can get. Either way a few hours online, a few google searches and he will know what is available. I can't recall if they are paying less on regional runs or not. I'd guess they are/can since everybody wants weekends off.

    1/2 cent per mile, and if your generous you can round up at the end of the week.

    Quit hauling containers. Then you'll have no worries about how little a driver can be paid.
