    I have heard 52.00 per day is average per diem, company I am considseing said they do not tax 260.00 of ur pay and that covers per diem. Shouldn't per diem be separate from pay and still untaxed?

    Here is a great article I posted about the per diem >> Perplexed by forced per diem option?

    I'm against the employer using my tax option as pay. It benefits them more than the driver, in several ways.
