    Oilfield pays more than fuel hauling around here. But the fuel hauler companies are hurting for drivers, because most of their drivers have gone into the oilfield.

    Check out Thomas Petroleum (210) 227-5021. I've been working for them for about 2 months now and I love it there. I'm clearing between 5K and 6K a month working 70-80 hours each week.

    Sorry, as far as I know they do not hire subs. They mostly haul diesel to the frac sites and fuel to some convienence stores.

    Hey cameramonkey, I see that you have only been a trucker for 2 years and are with Thomas Petroleum. How much driving time did you have under your belt before applying with them?
