    Yes your missing it. I make more than 2k a week training. Last weeks revenue was 8k and take home after cost was over $5k but that's because teaming right now (in training). As a solo driver I was still making $2k. But if you don't understand how you can go into a negative during a week, don't lease. Stay company until you can fully understand this.

    Reycer thats 2k a week while a trainees on the truck and the trucks out running right ? Thats good money. But do you have a trainee on the truck year round 100% of the time? Whats a 52 wk average number per week?

    I did read your post and what your saying is that you took home 2k a week or $104,000 per year as a solo lease operator with prime. Im gonna have to call b.s. on your claimed six figure salary as a lease driver. Im guessing you would of have had to gross about 250k-260k as a solo to make that possible. Since i know that the average reefer lease opp with prime grossed 200k for the calender year of 2013 i just dont believe you bud.

    Posted is the reefer solo lease profit summary form handed to me by Steve Larson. It is a summary of numbers for the entire fleet of 1445 leased trucks at prime for 1 weeks worth of numbers week ending 5/09/14. The average truck grossed $3855 and had a weekly cash flow of $1076, though we all know cash flow is cash flow into a business not a paycheck. Reycer is claiming take home pay was at $2000/wk which is an $924/wk dollar difference which is $48,000 per year. I just dont see the ability run the truck $48,000/yr more "efficiently" than the average driver who is trying to be efficient and make money themselves. So ya im calling b.s.

    Claim it. I don't run reefer genius. So sick of proving myself over and over. Just because you can't have it doesn't mean others aren't. ;)

    Yes you run flatbed. Simply running flatbed over reefer isnt going to make up the $40,000/yr that it appears you are exaggerating your pay by.
    Proving it over and over to whom when? You havent proved anything to anyone youve given us no prof of anything. I gave more prof to contradict your claims of making over a hundred grand a year as a solo lease op with prime than youve given of anything. Your claiming so in a forum heavily read by newbs dont mislead them. Less you can you can indeed prove what youre saying hey man i dont believe you.
    What is that supposed to imply that im jealous? Reycer, buddy relax man dont worry im not jealous of you im doing great when it comes to cash. Attached is prof of that too. This is my primary account i have another with more. In about 8 months ill be buying a truck cash. So chillout reycer nobodies jealous of you truthfully i hope your doing very well yourself i really do;)

    Nevermind. Was gonna show ya but I really am tired of it. Called a buddy of mine his student....student banked over $1,000 last week for going over miles. We both make about the same each week and we do it by running our tails off. We don't sit around with our thumb up the backside.
