Is there any one out there really getting good miles?

    I get fairly good miles I suppose.
    I train for CRE :-(
    4000 + per week.
    That said I have only averaged around 750 per week and you have to take the taxes out of that.
    I have not been home in 4 months.
    This is about the most ****** up industry I have every worked in.
    Yes I lease though I swore I would not.
    The reality of it is they have miles and people really do make money.
    But
    You can never go home
    and
    You better hope your truck doesn't break down.

    WHAT, you only make 19 cents a mile. That cannot be. :biggrin_2555:
    If that's really all you make, get out of the lease and drive a company truck.
