While I see alot of posting on this website about how much one should be makeing, I have as yet seen any hard information posted about rates that are actually being made either by O/O or CO drivers. Prehaps this will get it started:
My truck is a 2003 Columbia (freightliner) leased to Tango Transport located in Shreveport LA. Following is pay rate and charge backs:
.90 cpm loaded/empty + FSC (currently .25/mile) [updated every mon]
Paid plates (can run your own and will be paid $24.00/week)
Paid permits
Scales paid
Tolls paid
Prepass paid (or mine is anyway lol)
Lumpers paid {not deducted from settelment}
Comdata for fuel ( cash price + .02 discount)
No trailer rental (don't know if you can use your own)
Detention/Layover paid (if they feel like it, don't get it 1/2 the time)
Free truck wash at terminals (not automated actual person washes truck)
Now for the charge backs (deductions)
1.00 each time you use comdata card
Qual comm 12.50/wk
Physical damage Ins (depends on amount wanted can also use your own) avg. 35.00/wk
Bobtail/deadhead Ins (can use your own) 7.38/wk
Occ/Acc (occupational [workers comp]) 40.38/wk
Fuel Tax (no cost to get figured) monthly avg. 100.00
There, now that's some hard numbers.
Freight consists mostly of Fed-Ex, GM, paper, air conditioners for the flatbed part of the company, and of course the good ole brokered loads.
With these kids of posts, we as a group would know which companies to do business with. Oh yeah, NO I AM NOT A RECRUITER..LMAO..get that out the way before it even starts!!

hub miles? practical miles? short miles? and about how many do you average per week?
how much do you think you save on insurance through your company - as opposed to running on your own authority?
how long have you been with them and how do you think you're doing financially?
thanks
