Greetings fellow truckers... Im flirting with the idea to go back over the road after my two year stint with LTL.. Local in DFW, isnt what that is... Now baby 3(which is why I came off the road) is now a growing toddler, bills are piling up, child support is a strain, my 2 older kids are entering high school(my daughter next year, my son in 2), .... I made ok on the road, but I know there is more to be made else where. Flat bed and specialized is looking good to me now. I considered Lease Op, alot of you here are at each other's neck about it. Some say it's ok, others say they'll rip you off and it'll be better to save up a down payment.. Since being divorced, and local, I had to continually dip into savings I did have to catch unexpected expense, until depleted... I cant save a down payment due to the fact Im now virtually living check to check...I cant save up $5000-$8000 as a company driver... I have 11 years driving experience, 6 of that OTR.. And every company I talk to is offering .38 - .45 cpm Dedicated and OTR for van and Flatbed... TMC is offering 27% of freight cost for a company which is SUPPOSED to be equivalent to .46 a mile... I just want to make a living beyond child support, and still be able to put all 3 of my kids through college, and buy my first home...and save up.....
From van to flatbed?????
