    One load a day at $250 a load will NOT make you 80K to start. And it depends on which part of the pilot flying j you hire on with. they have crude hauling, they have diesel hauling to the rigs, they have fuel hauling to stations...

    Crudedude who are you working for, ur last company I mean? I'm looking at getting into crude hauling. I used to haul diesel and gas in Atlanta and now live in Austin. Looking at getting back into hauling. I know about hustling, you've gotta make it happen, its not gonna fall in ur lap.
