That's why Crete's ad says their top 50% of drivers average the big number. The number in the ad is an "average" of their upper 50% of drivers, if the number is accurate. It's a way to inflate the average into an "average" of their super truckers.
Imagine a stock picker telling you his success rate for making money on stocks, if you just consider the ones where he makes a profit, is $9,000 per stock per yer. Imagine a gambler quoting just his wins and ignoring his losses.

I saw one of those chicago trailers today..."make $2500 a week after expenses without owning equipment!"
So basically you're a 1099 that pays fuel and maintenance on someone else's truck. Cool. -
It means that the company is working you as a “contractor “ instead of an employee.
And the company is not paying 1/2 of the social security , so your social security tax will be 13% instead of 6%
Plus you have no workers comp insurance if you get injured and you’re not eligible for unemployment if you don’t have any work.Dennixx Thanks this. -
You can do a lot better than out here.
Just got $3 a mile out of Florida and then $5 a mile out of MO, $3000 in a day on that one. -

Man you aint kidding. I found a lot of info, and pay stubs to back up that info, supporting the fact they make over 90k a year. Most are over 100k. I am a new driver and I found a really good job that I'm hoping works out... BUT, I did try like to hell to get in to Estes. It just isn't the right time I guess, and they pay so good it appears they are getting some experienced drivers in the door. I can't blame them though, I would take the experienced drivers over training a complete rookie CDL holder.

I could be making up to $20k per month working part time from home. All I need to do is call the # on the sign I read on the corner of the block...

The recruiters at Heyl are the best or worse liars in the industry.When you see one of their trucks pray for the driver because he’s getting #### on by the ####tiest, greediest company in the Midwest.

48 of our around 100 solos made over 90k last year. I wasn’t the top paid driver but I still did close to 3 times your “average” number. People need to work harder AND smarter.
