The odds are in favor of the house

1.15 per mile is simply insane. My 2nd quarter was 1.60, all miles, pulling a company trailer, home every weekend. I haven't tarped in 3 years &last winter I chained once. I'm not getting rich, in fact I'm whining loudly. There is no way you can generate wages and a normal profit on 1.15

 

Well now they are generating profit, its just all going to the company

 

Yes they have some good ones? I hope. Thinking about doing a lease/purchase.
I am in Central FL. Somebody suggested C&A in Umatilla FL. Any body do business with them?
Or any other Companys you could suggest? Thanks for any advise!

 

My .02

Company driver, 2014 company truck. 3300mi a week. Load/unload pay. $1500-1600 net a week.

Keep your L/P.

p.s. Home every other night.

Bender, out.

 

3300mi a week? That's a good argument against being a company driver. LoL

 

What would you suggest? Drive around the block once, hand me my check for 1800 bucks? If you are a driver you might as well drive instead of sitting around. 3300 miles is about enough to stay busy

 

..For most perhaps,but a little busier than I'd like to be anymore.

 

I could stay out all week but I met my quota of loads. I have two kids and waiting on my third. If I was single I would do my 70 and take my 34 on the road and clear over $100k a year.

 

Good that you know how to balance your life. Congrats on the kid in the oven.

 

No doubt that's a great gig for a company driver. Unfortunately, there are not enough of those jobs to go around.
And in todays climate, with elogs, speed limiters, traffic volumes, construction, etc, 3300mi, week-in week-out, is a lotta #### work. 10yrs ago it'd be no problem, but now? I tip my hat to all who can sustain that pace.
