Say a Prayer:

You answered your own question in the first sentence of your first post.

You think $500 bucks a week is pretty good money.

If you honestly think so than you are perfect for Prime.

Realize you will be running as a team and racking up probably around 5,500-7,000 miles per week. $500 a week is peanuts.

I know everone here is talking about the lease deal and you say you don't want to go that route. But until you attend orientation and set back and have it basically forced down your throat you won't understand.

As a previous driver for Prime I think I know what I am talking about.

And if you do go the Lease route you would be happy to make $500 a week.

I hope you are kidding that is good money? I make double that if not triple as a company driver. And that is NET.
If you knew BOB, that is good money. :wink:

That's exactly where you will be if you lease a truck.

Scary,isn't it? Unless a person is single 500.00 a week isn't even enough to survive on no matter where you live.

If you had your Tanker and Hazmat endorsement...

You could try hiring on with either Superior Carriers in our Axis, AL yard or our food-grade sister company, Carry Transit out of the Decatur, AL yard. Either way, you'd make far more than .34/mile and, be home much more frequently :wink:.

That is lease operater training pay,NOT company driver training pay. It is a 90 day so-called training program.

Did you note the age of the OP? Very few companies hire 21 y/o's. My suggestion would be to wait another year when your options will increase exponentially.
