So the "wisdom" goes, "Drive company and save your money!" Really? At $0.44 a mile for 3000 miles that's a check of $1320. Sounds good. Take out a low end of 15% for taxes and now it's $1122. Ok, so save the equivalent of my lease payment of ~$570 and now the company guy is at $552 a week.
Not so good any more. At a more realistic 25% rate that liveable check is now about $420ish federal reserve notes! That's living at poverty level.
Now if you don't ever wish to go a more independent route then yes, you will most likely make more than my piss-ant $0.90cpm rate...albeit for only a few years.

Always remember, even company drivers are paying for the equipment, tractor, trailer , DM's and mechanics and terminal property. No matter what you are are driving or how you are driving it, company or lease or owner op the driver is paying the entire overhead of the trucking business.
