    Been 6 quick months with Prime now and they have kept me very busy....
    I do lease from them and and although I have read many terrible experiences regarding leasing I have yet to have a bad one. Avg pre-tax income is currently 55 cpm after expenses. Avg'ing about 3kmi per week and out for a month or two at a time...so not home much. Already received Top Driver for month and got a small bonus. So I have to say Prime has really come thru with flying colors for me. If you are thinking of driving for Prime and have any questions feel free to send'em...I do not get on here daily so be patient and I'll respond as soon as I can. Drive safe!

    Talk to us next April after you've done your taxes and complete one full year and discovered all the little surprises. Not saying you're in for a bad discovery but most don't really know how good or bad they did until they've completed one tax return for a minimum of 9 months and paid all their various insurance needs and self employment taxes and find out interesting little things about the tax code and self-employment and being a "business owner"
