    It makes it a lot easier especially when I had days like today when I’m only had to drive from Little America to Cheyenne for my delivery in the morning.

    Keep in mind we also get our health insurance covered 100percent no out of pocket cost for the driver. Plus while we are at home we still get paid. Alot of companies advertise "make up to $75000" but that don't usually happen because of loads, truck breaks down, weather, home time etc..because they pay cpm, as we get our weekly salary no matter what. Plus bonuses. My bonuses this year will put me over the $70,000 mrk for the year plus i also have $800.00 in vacation pay coming. Count the 100% paid Healthcare and I'll be over $75,000 for the year. I'm NOT saying it's all peachy here you got to work for it and put your time in etc.. it's just alot of people don't understand it when it comes to salary as a trucker. We are programmed with the old cpm routine.

    One more thing. Every year you are here your bonus pay goes up, basically it's a raise and a way to make more money the longer you stay.

    You say you will make an additional 10k in bonuses? That means you’re running 14k miles a month since it’s .41 for anything OVER 12k miles, is that right?
