    They don't have a minimum as fa as I know. There are some guys that have big houses on there trucks and can only net 42k. Bottom line is the more weight you can carry, the less loads you have to turn down. Although the heavy loads don't always pay more but you'll have more opportunities to get outof bad areas. Rob out.

    Well if you guys at Mercer are really averaging $2.05 for every mile to the truck then I'm in. Gonna get the ball rolling next week on leasing on my truck. This thread has been very informative, thanks everyone.

    Be mindful that these guys obviously know what they're doing and how to do it, and they have built a good rep with the people they work with. If things don't go your way, check back and read up on what they are doing and compare to what you're doing. Only you can make it work.
     
    Jim837 Thanks this.
