    income

    Yep, 110" windshield to camper back. Stand up, walk to bed, two nice wide bunks, lots of storage, good ride, hell of a team truck, if, you don't want to go camping, only. I love it.

    income

    Absolutely, drivers, and or contractors should get 100% for finger printing freight. NOT 100% of 60%, or, 60% or 60%. We've had folks that have made more unloading than hauling the freight. We charge a nickle a pound. The problem is, I feel, it's all about money. Not Service. Way too many...

    income

    I feel a $80,000 truck is a working machine not a camping machine, don't feel you need much more than that, if, you want to move freight. I had a couple stick their nose up in the air toward my 110" double bunk condo, because it didn't have a sink and shower in it this week. Also, I have...

    income

    I guess i'm wondering why someone can't run for $1.50 per mile. If they don't have a "need for speed" and pay attention for other details that should be a very good living. Fuel with the right equipment should cost somewhere around $.30 per mile, equipment cost for an $80,000 truck should be...

    Maybe, just maybe, sleeping with cheese would be a more worthy read. I couldn't believe the dumb ##### was taking you on a trip like that. How'd you like it??

    Training a co-driver

    Interestingly, I had anticipations of growing my company, so, I started growing it in Apr 2005. One year later, after going thru twenty something owner operators and drivers I have grown two whole trucks. And, one of those is standing on a bananna peel. The big problem I see is absolutely no...

    200k Gross?

    Hey Easy: The biggest thing the boys and girls here failed to mention to you is the fact that, you have to be in the truck driving it, putting freight on it, and, going down the road. You can't do 200k setting at the house because you didn't want to go there. Or, there's a good game on or...

    Where Are Van Drivers

    I'm sorry Webster I didn't answer your question. I believe it's not the price of fuel, it's the work involved.

    Where Are Van Drivers

    Well folks, it's like this in my town. A year ago April 2005 I figgured i'd slow down from the road a bit myself, and allow some owner operators and drivers a great opportunity to enjoy this business and do well in the income department. Here it is April 2006. After attempts to help twenty...
