I currently have a truck but am thinking of either parking it and selling it or putting a driver in it.
I was wondering if any companies where you can take home atleast 1700 a week. I am willing to go otr and travel.
have over 8 years experience
Companies paying atleast $1700 net a week ?

If your not netting $1700 a week with your truck. You're at wrong place
justcarhaulin, Opendeckin and TX2Day Thank this. -
but I still am considering selling it or putting a driver it in. -
Then sell it. If its not good for you to drive you wont keep a driver (worth having) in it
As far as being a company driver netting 1700 a week...... tell us where you find it, when you get itBlagoje, TripleSix, Diesel Dave and 3 others Thank this. -
I think that may be difficult to find. The average cpm is 60 cpm. Even if you run 3000 miles, after taxes and insurance, it'll be around 1400 or 1500 a week. Also, with the freight the way it is, I can't imagine that too many drivers are averaging 1700 take home. You need to find a company that pays about 70 cpm, and runs 3000 miles every week otr. You'll need to look LTL or potentially look at Walmart.
