[QUOTE="Opus, post: 12388487, member: 77070"]Well, you answered your own question. Indeed, according to your spreadsheet, if you drove 550 miles a day, every day, you'd make $110k. The problem is, you can't drive 550 miles a day for 365 consecutive days. If you were to AVERAGE 3000 miles a week, and most members here would tell you that's a pretty strong average for a company truck, and if you did it for 52 consecutive weeks, you would gross $85,800. But that ain't gonna happen.[/QUOTE]
