    I heard that rule, but I am still interested in what their average and rate was for the year.

    I was looking at them for a few reasons.

    And this is the reason why, try and tell these rookies don't do it the odds are stacked against you from the start and not worth the stress it causes and even if you do pay off the truck it's not worth much and will need engine/trans rebuilt by that time with runs 20-25k for an inframe so you still won't have it paid off really and for what to say your a gloried company driver.Theres no reason why people can't make 1,000-1500 a week as a company driver with benefits and not have to deal with the stress.Only reason why companies offer these l/p programs is to make money off of you follow the money trail and you will find the answer to most things.That being said sni does have one of the few l/p programs that actually give a driver half a chance to succeed.

    With revenue of $3000 how are expenses $2600? You'd figure with $1200-$1300 in fixed cost per week how would fuel be $1200-$1300 with that little amount of revenue? Fuel cost is way down as it is and he'd have to be running 2500-3000 miles per week to even come close to that fuel cost. Is he taking advances? Either that or he's running for $1/mile with fuel surcharge
