    Frankly, with your wealth of knowledge, you shouldn't be driving a truck, you should set up a service matching drivers with carriers. You'll probably earn more, and your fame will grow exponentially!

    In the (not-so) great Midwest - Indiana specifically. It's a smaller fleet (100-150 trucks) and family ran and they are hard as heck to get on with because they do pay so well and treat ya like family. Standing offer is 60k for regional (weekends home) dry van or 80k tanker. Our friend left the local police force to work for them and he's at 120k and only been there 2 years. He's a company driver too (not OO).

    Oh and I aways have to look up the alphabet soup in my son's text, so now I'm used to it :)
