    Try starting out at least 40 cents per mile.

    Those big trucking company's are making at least $1.50 a mile off of you being away from home 2, 3 weeks at a time. And will fire you pick as can be if they can find enough reason to.

    That's right, they polish up the sales pitch to make it sound good.
    Get you signed up into a contract that you can't get out of, or cost way too much money. So you'll pull freight cheap, while they sit and make it big

    But 34 cents a mile while making the average mileage a day legally with minimum stops what would be a weekly pay has to be better then not even 900 in 2 weeks

    Dude, your gonna be sitting in docks every week for many hours. You will not get close to 600 miles day in and day out.
