Lonestar Transportation drivers.. Check in!

That varies greatly depending on your deductions. Do you want insurance? Do pay alimony or child support? Want money in your 401(k)? So what you take home really depends on what deductions you take out. As well as how you do advances too.

For example, my deductions are about $506 every two weeks. I usually take out one advance of $150 to cover tolls and such for those two weeks. I've already taken $650 out of my check. Going back and forth into Canada ate up that $150 quick but sometimes it'd last me the whole month. Anyway, my usual take home is about $1450 a check barring any break downs. During the winner it can drop to about $1100-ish. I have a lot of deductions though. And several of them are pre-tax, so take it for what it is.

Anyway, back in Canada for the next 3 days. Pick up a load of onions in Oregon to bring to Dallas. It'll be nice to be south again. I haven't been below I-40 in since October 3rd when I picked up the Alaskan load and likely won't get back below before October 24th.

I'll share some pictures in a little while.

 

Djtrype, your attachments arent working.

 

had to look back to see where I left off, said I was going to Tomball so I did that Friday afternoon, almost out of hours for the day and not thinking I had anything preplanned, wrong, head to League City headed to Ft Worth. Great all the way across Houston in Friday rush hour, I get over there to the Keen yard and they said they couldn't load oversize after 3pm, I didn't know it was permit load so off to Baytown for the weekend. Went back Monday loaded and it was only about 10 ft wide, dozer. Unloaded that next day and get told to head to Ft. Worth yard, turns out I'm repowering a load to Escondido, CA and to go home after. Met the guy the next day and this one turns out to be 11'5 wide, went off without a hitch but man oversize without an escort in So Cal is an experience. Now at home and going to DMV shortly to get that all straight.

Oh already got next load picks up Thursday, Wilmington, CA going to Adrian, TX. Transformers. Bad day to pick up, just over 1000 mi trip but receivers leave at 3pm so I'll have that one for 4 days, might go slightly out of route and go back through the house for a couple nights.

Oh and if any of you will be in Ft. Worth Saturday I'm trying to get there for the luncheon.

That's the post that didn't go through for me yesterday with doing it as an attachment. I think my data coverage was spotty though.
