Hello,
I am new to trucking: I bought a 2013 Cascadia 125 with 681,000 miles, and a company manages it for me.
So far repairs were: $724 new battery, $1800 for gaskets.
The home-base for the truck is in Dallas.
I am averaging approx. $3200 / week in load revenue (based on past 6 weeks), and I wanted to see where it is in the ballpark of what you're earning.
Below is a screenshot of my weekly deductions - any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
EDIT: Added full statement

wow, you're only showing a balance of about $300 after all that..??
what about income taxes and any health benefits?
i dunno, but to me, you ain't doing so good.HoneyBadger67, 86scotty and TripleSix Thank this. -
Your math is absolutely correct!, I don't think that it's doing good either!
-
are YOU the driver..???
if not, you just own the truck and you hired a driver..??
on a 1099 maybe..??
either way, too many fee's you're shelling out for.TripleSix Thanks this. -
The management, factoring and dispatching fees are taking 30% off the top. He could do better leasing on to a company like Landstar and they’d only take 25%. Please don’t tell me you’re paying a driver $680wk to run the roads. The freight rate must be really cheap.jamespmack, Opendeckin, 86scotty and 2 others Thank this.

I am not the driver, I have a driver which gets % of the total revenue.
Based on the screenshot is 22%

I added the full statement with the loads for this past week

You are running low revenue to begin with and being terribly robbed on the fees. Find an exit before your truck needs even a steer tire. You cant afford it on those numbers.

How many days and how many total miles did that $3100 put on the truck?
Cabinover101 and Cattleman84 Thank this. -
Wow that's like half the revenue my trucks get and 40% of what I pay my drivers on a bad week .....you must have a lot of turnover
