    Over $76,000 for me last year plus around $8000 just given to me through profit sharing, literally given to me & that doesn't even include the 401K contribution

    Some parts of Crete are still good. Maybe even great. Their 401K is one thing that's great.

    Sorry, my friends. Make that 500 a WEEK. My bad there. My fault. Didn't proof read. But they still are content at 2000 a month, gone about 25 days total in that month.

    You glossed over the fact they are CONTENT with their paycheck. If they're happy, who are we to say they're doing it wrong.

    Maybe Mama I is happy with them out of the house. Maybe she's the major bread winner in the family. Who knows what the dynamic of the family is that makes it work for them.

    They aren't perfect but for a large carrier, I think they're hard to beat overall

    You r a trainer,team driver,live out west or just work in the office.For 7 years with crete the average pay for a solo was around 64k,now with the pay and speed raise may be 67(thats pretty good).But 76-80k come on.

    2008= $61,261.93
    2009= $58,553.43 (economy tanked)
    2010= $62,129.91
    2011= $64,572.73
    2012= $63,585.80
    2013= $66,155.69

    2015= $76,390.24
    2016= $74,291.78
    2017= $77,171.03
    Was doing good up until May of this year also as a company driver, bought a truck here in May & that's going very well so far, better than I expected anyway.
    Edit: I'm not a trainer or team either. My Wife has been on the truck with me for the past 7 years but she doesn't drive.
    Edit again: Screenshot I just took. The bottom left figure is what I made from Jan 1st through the end of April. Bottom right was my gross from last year

    News flash News flash a driver can be help responsible for some or all damages caused by there driving. Learn from this when your under load and you could easily have snapped a differential best off putting on the diff locks before taking off and go easy on the throttle its not the Daytona 500 where its the first man past the post.

    They only make you pay if its your fault, like if you run out of fuel, you get to pay for it. Good luck finding a company that's paying more then 53 CPM
