    Let's hope the $2100 is what he KEEPS outta the deal. I am kinda skeptical....."to the truck" means different things to different people.

    This is why I come on here and why I appreciate my fellow drivers so much I just learned something else.

    Tough to hurt my feelings.

    I don't know what his expenses are, or much else, other than what's been posted here. Maybe there was another reason to take the load. He seems to be happy with the choice, I say more power to him!

    Here's the deal, maybe keep pounding got one heck of a good deal and that's what's going into his pocket after all is said and done or maybe he got a polished up turd, Only he knows. There are good agents there are great agents and then theirs the bad ones that malone has on the list. For example I only pulled two loads this week so far maybe I'll get a 3rd on Monday outta Georgia that'll drop on Tuesday in time for my Friday settlement. Even without a 3rd load the truck is going to gross a little over $5300 on about 2000 miles. I work with one agent that takes really good care of me and I take good care of his freight and a choice few other agents to get back hauls to my one agents customers. It took me about 5 months to build the relationship with my agents and I definitely took some turd loads before I got to this point. With the attitude that keep pounding has he's going to do just fine, in fact I'd bet he'll do better than most of us here

    Jesus Christ admin! How long are you guys go
    First of all... You don't know me to criticize me trucking genius. Maybe we should all just sit back and wait for You, Lonesome, & Dvrtech to post since you 3 successful millionaires have it all figured out. Is people like you 3 that get me kicked off this website. But like I said earlier... Neither one of you are worth an explanation. None of you sign my check, pay my bills, put food on my table, or pay the tuition for my little girls academy. Kick bricks!

    I will never feel the need to explain myself or my money to any of you know it all's. Everyone who needs to know, understands. To those of you who questioned it or think you got my loads all figured out, do us all a favor and go play in traffic.

    Loaded yesterday in VA with three stops in Illinois all within thirty miles of each other all coming off Monday. $1974 on 931 miles then start loading toward the house as I have to be home Thursday load Friday birthday party Saturday then roll for who knows how long. Took 8 days off in the hole $890 big deal. Really enjoyed my time at home.

    Everyone's needs are different. We all expect and require a different take home at the end of the week. When I hear $2100 to the truck going to Cali that doesn't bother me a bit I assume he's already deducted fuel from that amount and truck on. The end of the day it's his business and he's happy so that's what matters.

    The intentions of this post are to show drivers that are reading the bad reviews and hearing truck stop talk, ex driver blah blah blah a chance to talk and communicate with a few drivers who are making it work for themselves at Malone. Not to compare paycheck at the end of the week..

    With that said if y'all know where the good stuff is let me know lol.

    Everyone does it different but for me to get my TO the truck amount I take the gross x by .75 add the FSC and any additional pays on the load. Some people deduct the fuel out as well. Whatever works for you.
