    When times are good yes O/O will make more, but some people fail to fully account for all hours on their truck.

    if you have to watch your load on your 10 and 34? Your working. So in essence O/O or even company drivers are doing free work 10 hours a day as Security guards.

    so if you account for that it comes out to about $35-40 per hour on bad years or even less.

    One truck operation. account with pilot thru RTS. ( Not the standard RTS card rate) $1.17 off. Things are negotiable, but only if you negotiate. D4B97752-84EC-49BE-A5FA-EF56191A7CA4.jpeg

    Dude just post a pic of your truck with kw6969 on a piece of paper or something if you wanna shut him up. Pretty simple. Just block out your plate/numbers. Problem solved for both parties

    That's because many don't understand the market? People went out and bought these half million mile trucks for over 100k now they are gonna get repo. People should of been paying off trucks and credit card debt

    Has never felt better having an old paid off freight shaker!

    When rates are cheap I'm soo happy I don't have a truck payment.

    This guy would say I went up to somebody else's truck. Has a ridiculous excuse for anything.
    I know how he rolls at this point.

    No you don't..... You're a fraud and an embarrassment to us true professionals in the industry.

    What truly embarrassing is someone who routinely goes on a trucking forum to troll the same individual countless times.
    Dismisses any evidence that debunks the trolling.
    Rejects any meanwhile discussion.
    Doesn't add anything helpful and constructive to this forum meant to help others.

    This is a place meant to be positive and help people. If you so happen to be really a truck driver you are disgrace and not in any means "professional".

    Start being kind and constructive and not attacking others. For the sake of all.
    I hope can actually do that.
