    My pay hasnt doubled, but I make more and only have to work 4 days. Go to the same customer twice a day and that's it. I have to laugh when I see the same ads week after week begging for drivers to spend 4-5 weeks on the road to make $1000-1200 a week

    My pay has doubled as well.
    Don't have to drive at night or weekends if I don't want to. I get to schedule my days off to coincide with my wife's days off. If I want to take a vacation, I do. If I want to drive for 10 days to make up for lost revenue, I do. If I wake up at 4 and want to go to work, I do. If a couple of hours later I want to take a nap, I do. If I get hungry, I eat. If I get tired, I sleep.
    I have no one telling me when to go to work or how long I should work. My dress code is my own, and I smoke and fart as often as I like.

    Everyone has different needs / wants. So long as you're happy doing what you're doing, who's to say wrong?

    Just outside of Knoxville. Headed home in the morning until Monday.
    Happy trails!

    Its kinda hunt and hope at the moment.
    But, Ricky, you and I have done this before and we're still here.
    I have high hopes. Plus, I'm still doing pretty good.

    At home in the Good Life City. Roll out on Monday.

    I’m not complaining. Just pointing it out. I’m still hitting my target each week.

    I think the issue this winter with freight, was last year customers were racing to beat the new tariffs January 01, so that's one reason it was booming and so i think winter past winter just ending was slower than normal...it does appear to be picking up some now...
