    My brother and I are both getting into trucking and thinking about teaming. It looks like us xpress is a pretty good team company. Sounds like they pay 44-48 cents per mile after 8 weeks. What are some other good team companies we should look into? Conway? Others? We are wanting dry van company with apu's/inverters if possible.

    Thanks nodda. That chart is confusing. So am I interpreting correctly that if the truck does 5k miles in a week that each driver would make .225 × 5k = $1,125?

    That is a referral bonus chart. If you refer a person and the company hires that person, you get free money.
