Some numbers for new O/O

Thats why i specifically asked for numbers, hand.

 

Oh. Well. I have two hands. Thumb and four fingers on each.

 

So you cant even make a good work hand? Sad times we live in

 

Best I can do.



I have a thread on driver first aid though for smashed and infected fingers and such if you know how to use the search feature.

 

There are good companies to lease on too. The company I’m with pays $1.30 loaded and $1.00 empty. Might not seem like a lot but my fixed cost run $967.60 & variable(fuel) between $900-$1300 a week. They also pay $144 every time loaded or unloaded as well as $80 if before 8am or after 5pm. An I have had steady 2900-3400 miles every week for last 7 months. Lots of long hauls as well. Oh and best of all 95% of loads under 10,000lbs

 

I wouldn't start my truck for 1.30 a mile. I didn't buy a truck just to make less than I could driving for a company.

 

you run a business, he bought a job.

 

Might not be the ideal! But with steady runs and with rates where they are right now. Taking home pre tax $3,000 a week is ok with me for dry-van.

 

How much are your truck and trailer payments?

 

My truck payment is $1,700 a month, so breaks down to $425 a week. Use their trailers no cost. An insurance and omnitracs, etc. run my fixed cost to around $960 a week. Oh an for those who think i don’t know business! I have a business finance degree. I choose to drive a truck because the freedom and money. I love it.
