Taxes: Can I do better with my own rig?

Find the company driver making six figures a year and then we can continue the chat.

 

Plenty of folks have posted what they make on here as a company driver that's over $100k... Seek and you will find...

 

Hence mythical.

 

I'm guessing you wouldn't meet the qualifications anyhow.

 

I'm a company driver, a W2 employee, good benefits, and a very good company. And I dont drive junk. And for the most part, work a normal schedule. It works for me. And I make 6 digits the last 3 years here.

 

Care to post a w2? How many hours a week? How many miles? Do you get paid percentage or per mile?

I own the company. I make the qualifications now. Ahahhahahha

 

I'll show my last stub that I got before my year end bonus. With lots of stuff blurred out of course.

 

Company driver here 90k m-f 12 hrs ish a day great benefits and vacation.
Could easily break 100k if I wanted to push my 70 and or work Saturdays each week, But I like my time off

 

I haul chlorine, sulfuric acid, caustic soda, propane, anhydrous ammonia, hydrochloric acid, bleach, glycol, KOH, ferric chloride, ferric sulfate, various oilfield chemicals, motor oil, urea, DEF, diesel fuel, gasoline. We are a small 20 truck outfit with about 60 different tankers, a few vans, I work average 60 hours per week, sometimes more, sometimes less, depends on the time of the year. November and December when propane was hot and heavy running HOS exemption, I ran 70 plus a week, but that was my decision. I get vacation when I want, my days off are a little variable, but I'm ok with that. Year end bonus was 3800 before taxes. So tack that on and it was a 115k year.
