    A company can pay you more cents per mile but have a lot fewer miles for you to drive so it is a smaller paycheck from another company with smaller CPM and more miles.
    Pay = CPM X Miles.

    I'd rather do the 4 days on and 3 days off.

    Ask the company to have one of their drivers...
    Really?
    And how would you know if the person calling you was a driver, and an honest driver, for that company?

    People say this all the time, to have the company get you in touch with one of the drivers to have an honest conversation.
    How gullible are people?
    The person that calls you could be the same person that wrote that review on Google.

    I get the feeling he was just trying to be sarcastic one has to put some imagination into some of the input and responses at times. As common sense would suggest you don't take out a loan for $750 k without a steady income.
     
    Wargames Thanks this.

    Actually, you can not get a 750K loan without a very high income and a good credit rating.

    You don't 'take out' a loan, but are granted one if you qualify.
     
    Wargames Thanks this.

    Totally agree. I never understand why folks give that advice.....I don't see where that's different than a Google review either.

    Guys. Check his posting history. He's got only one oar in the water. Don't bother with advice. There will be continued posts that are unrealistic. It is entertaining.
    I live in his area. You can get ALOT of house down there for less. 750000 is like a million to 2 mil elsewhere.

    Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Gone from a $1,000 for a 4 day work week to a 1,000- 1,200 for a 7 day workweek. Plus expenses will go through the roof.
