    1500 per week gross ? Very few companies. 1500 per week net, even fewer companies. If its OTR you're looking for, 1500 weekly is difficult to sustain with VERY FEW exceptions. It seems like every week I gross 1500, I get cooled off a little bit the next week lol

    Heck where me an you work I'd have to run 3000 miles every week to get close to 1500 every week. An since me an the wife team i don't hardly ever see 3000 in a pay week anymore. Plus to do it all the time I'd never be able to go home.

    They've been doing it for years. That is why the pay for OTR is paying the same as it did in 1998.

    Well i get more per mile now but back then i ran harder on paper than i do now on e logs. That being said at the end of the year now i don't make anymore than i did back then. Plus the cost of living is higher now.

    Doubles is dead easy. We never pulled triples.

    Clean up your record, and try - a mindset that says it can’t be done will never succeed.

    Right!!! And that's just gross, once child support and other deductions get to me, I'll end up with 11ish. 3000 miles weekly consistently is a pipe dream for the most part
