I made more running mail from Phoenix to Des Moines and back ($.53 a mile, 3,000 miles a week) but my DM was a lying SOB! I'm making about the same as running a bulk tanker in AZ, but that was HARD work! Don't get me started about my short stint as an academy instructor in Phoenix.
It's not for everybody. Unless you have firsthand experience with Swift and IEL don't try to tell somebody what they're up against. I knew Swift's/IEL's shortcomings and I came back anyway. Sometimes it's the "devil you know vs the devil you don't know".CK73 Thanks this. -

Considering swift has the say and can pull your truck out from under you. It's really not your truck.
You don't get to keep it or take it anywhere to another company -
I have $.10 per mile deducted, it goes into my maintaince account and it's MY MONEY to do with as I see fit. I pay all of my maintaince out of pocket as I want NOTHING to do with Swift shops. It's also simplier than getting a PO and having it taken out of my maintaince account. I keep a minimum amount in my maintaince account for emergencys. I can transfer it to a weekly settlement for $0 or put it on my Comdata Mastercard for $5.asphaltreptile311 Thanks this. -
If you miss a payment on my truck with the bank they will take it from you as well.
And if you continue to beat this dead horse you'll just get sore arms.FlaSwampRat Thanks this. -
Someone will be all too happy to fill in. -
IEL is making a lease payment on every truck in the fleet whether it is leased to a driver or not.
Aren't your arms tired yet? -
