    .30 x 3300 a week = $990 + nice truck

    .38 cpm x 2650 mi = 1007 and a freightshaker and electronic logs -

    whoohoo !!

    that extra 17 bucks will get me a t-bone at the silver skillet and new a pair of skivies for when i #### myself :biggrin_2559:

    I'll buy the steak should we run into each other !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    $990 a week before taxes don't go far here in upstate NY.....I tried it a few months ago driving for Crowe Trans I wasn't getting anywhere near 3300 though or $990 for that matter....so I went back to the boss man (see sig) .41 unlimited miles if he's got the freight....

    I was hell bent on driving something nice rather than a freightshaker or volvo governed at 65 for a bottom feeder !!

    I miss that big large car but not the little pay check that came with it..

    But you get to drive a shiny peterbilt lol.

    Thats one of the problems with trucking. Is drivers think miles miles miles. How many miles can i run. I would rather run less miles and make more or the same amount of money then someone who runs 6-800 more miles a week then me.

    I mean if you had a job offer of 10/hr and 80 hours a week. Or a job offer of 20/hr and 40 hours a week. Which one would you take?? The 10/hr one has alot more hours. But that doesn't mean its better.

    Just my 2cents.
