    You think $37 per hour as a Owner Operator is good money?

    To back your statement up there. When I retired from UPS two years ago that's what I made.... without the bills/headache/extra time involved with owning a truck. Punch in, punch out, get paid. I would say that is definitely not enough to own a truck on. Well I should say it's a quality of life thing, can you afford a truck on that.... absolutely but how is everything else gonna be after the truck money is taken out
     
    JonJon78 Thanks this.

    Is that after the truck is paid for or before? Because if it's after then yes...great money. Before...that's garbage because you can make that as a company driver with no bills lol.

    Is it net or gross? Net it's just ok....gross it's a fast path to bankruptcy.

    I don't know, I don't own a truck. Again no one answered my question, what should it be? Every one bickers and no one actually gives detailed data. It's a big circle jerk
