    20 miles for $100? THAT'S a gravy load?

    When I had my van on with Mercer I used to do 3 per day on occasion with a $500.00 minimum (I got 75%)... 18 miles each way hauling bagged coal slag.

    And 10 years to gross a million? What took him so long?

    should be able to gross over 1 mil as a company driver in 14 years and end up netting more
    but if you took into account of what the company pays for in your bennies/taxes and stuff like that--might knock it down a year or so
