Company Driver to IC

Yes. A little less money (maybe) but far less headaches. I thought about going the IC route when I was at Superior. Talked to a lot of drivers that had their own truck. They said it's basically a wash by the time you pay all your expenses, health insurance, etc. Most told me it was better to stay a company driver.

Another thing too is once you get at least 3 years tank experience you can find a higher paying company driver job. It took me a little bit but I found the unicorn I was looking for. Those 80k+ a year jobs do exist without the hassle of owning your own truck. It is nice letting someone else worry about paying for truck repair and maintenance. Just my 2 cents.

 

exactly

 

Can I pm you?

 

man I think I screwed that deal up because it started a post I believe. What are the IC possibilities for being a regional guy out of Markham?

 

So if it wasn't for the maintenance, would you call it a successfull move?

Have you compared if the maintenance costs you endured would have been the close enough to the extra payment for the new truck?

 

NC assuming you are in a new truck now? How is things going?

 

one more to be 'watched'! lol
