The company benefits by retaining elite drivers who might otherwise leave the company to become owner-operators elsewhere, and it affords us another avenue to grow our revenue with minimal capital deployed."
Notice how the News Release states how this will benefit the company, doesnt say anything about how it'll benefit the driver.

When you run a biz, growing revenue with minimal capital is a BIG plus.

I have been sitting in Tulsa all weekend. While here, I had the opportunity to talk with one of their trainers. He said that they pay about $1.12/mile including the fsc. Not enough if you expect to make any money. I believe he said that the payments run about $350 or 400/week. Of course, that doesn't include maintenance account, etc., :roll:

USA Truck is ripe for the picking. Have heard off and on over the past few months that J.B. Hunt is interested in them. 8)
