    3700/.8 x .25 = 1156.25: it's 25% of 4625; that would be somewhat low in ND. As a company driver I grossed $40k (less about $3500 for mancamp) the first six months of the year working about 20 on and 10 off.

    We load from all over Texas, von ormy, cotulla, stanton, odessa, levelland, San angelo, kosse, etc... also out of new mexico. And even pick up loads from Sanders, Az. To leases around pecos, San antonio, big lake and closer to
    San angelo. I haven't been down to the valley yet with any loads. But really it's all spread out. 75% of our loads are 225 miles loaded or further.

    I correct myself. He did say 25% of the 80%. Usually it's 25% of the 100%

    Just a quick note to let you know, that you picked two of the worst companies for pay and probably the worst time in a long time to be running sand. It has come back in a big way this year, but I don't expect it to last more than another year. After that, it will probably get slow again unless we start shipping oil and natural gas overseas, which is possible. Good luck.

    Does anyone have a pneumatic trailer or know anyone that wants to lease one. My boss has added another truck but needs to lease a trailer. If you can, send me an email please, dustymeyers123@yahoo.com, thanks

    What leads you to believe in things not lasting more than a year?

    I have been with Tutle & Tutle in Ar for 3 months now and never less than $1500 gross a week unless I took an extra day off and that was on me .
    We have drivers in S Texas also where it is booming.
     
    trucker91 Thanks this.
