    By the way, tow truck operators make bank in Wyoming when the wind blows or DEF systems start freezing up rigs in the winter. Low cost of living. Just a thought.

    Second that!
    It's only a number, but it reflects a lot of hard work, rolling with punches, and keeping your word/signature/ handshake.
     
    roadmap65 and Lepton1 Thank this.

    For the $1500 gross I'd have to push you into the ODFL camp if you also want to be home daily/nightly.

    Solos $80k, Teams $100k+ each.

    With that record you'd sail in the door.

    Congratulations and best of luck, though you've made your own.

    I always tell the kids that money in your wallet means nothing. The day you can walk into a car dealership and drive away in a brand new car using just your signature is the day you will realize that your name has value. Your signature is as good as cash.
