    Apologies accepted. We had less than 2 years experience going in.

    Again, some here call BS on the most truthful facts - but that’s the internet I guess.

    Enjoy the 4th folks.

    There are good and bad leases. Do your homework. $100k per year for a solo driver after truck expenses is obtainable with a good lease.

    Dummy me looked at what you typed on ODFL. Didn't think. Took it as designating a lease position with somebody. Not Old Dominion. Not company driver. Then I went off typing.... Doh!

    So many newbies get deceived with talk at mega's that they will make $4k+ something a week. That is pure gross. Before all expenses. That match up in the $4k range also threw me off.
    That $4k+ something a week at a mega, equals about $8K+ something at someone like Landstar.

    Geesh.... ODFL is one of the very best jobs.

    You're SO CAUGHT. Outed. Had. The jig is up.

    And the real reason you attempt to lead your fellow driver's and man into the abyss is...………………….( insert reason here).

    lmfao
