    Keep in mind I have no truck payments.

    Best week take home I only get like once a year:

    $11,500 gross
    -$1,600 fuel
    -$350 tags/ins/trailer
    =$9,550 net take home

    Average for 2019 that’s been a down market for me is roughly $5-6,000 gross, $3500 take home net.

    Yes, but we are bragging about the best we have grossed, not what we get to stick in our pocket, or share with mama. lol
    I have seen weeks where I would have been happy to have profited 2.37. lol

    And some people wonder why everybody either went out and bought a truck or bought more trucks.

    I can see it now there will be a flood of people buying trucks now . Just what we dont need. Heck it was probably a broker asking the Question.
