    Hmm. I must be dreaming as well, then. Well, I don't know, this imaginary money has been helping with my real world purchases.

    Bottom line is this: We work for Knight, YOU don't. What could you possibly have for alleged inside information? His numbers ARE average. In this company if you aren't clocking in at 2500 miles a week, you aren't pushing hard enough.

    600$ a week? You're delusional. 1200 is low. Were you running Per Diem? What did you claim on taxes? What was your week on / week off ratio? Most guys run with a 3 day off schedule. Nobody I know does 1/1 1/2 or even 1/3. Its more like 3 weeks, 3 days off, and those payouts are decent.

    Numbers don't lie. Lets use your 2500 miles a week and the fact Knight starts drivers out at .34 cpm. That works out to exactly $850 GROSS for a week. After taxes, health insurance, etc. it means a bring home of about $600. $1200 is low? That would require a Gross of about 1450. That works out to 4265 miles at .34 cpm.

    Thanks for playing, NEXT!

    When he said 1200, he meant MILES not DOLLAR BILLS.

    :yes2557:

    Current fleet average for dryvan is around 1500 miles a week. Don't worry, we only have another year to wait for another KnightKrusader post.

    This is a good thread. I'm considering driving for Knight intermodal. Anyone with experience driving for this division of Knight Transportation?

    I've worked for knight transportation for about 2 1/2 years and I have. Never ran into problems like that they keep me very busy...I get great miles and pay..they always pay me layover. ..and if something goes wrong my driver manager always makes it right......knight transportation is a good company in my eyes.....maybe it was "YOU"....I've seen a lot worse companies out there...I always say you want to make money keep those wheels moving....I stay out for 3-4 weeks at a time and I do not do the 34 hour reset out here I run strictly on my recap.....and it works if you run 8-8.75 hours each day....I make great money with Knight Transportation. ..I will not go anywhere else...by the way what terminal was you out of?
