All of us are grossing good money - the question is how much are we keeping.
Just so everybody here is clear _ NET_ is what you take home. All these people talking about taking home $150,000 up to $300,000. Hmm - then posting losses for the year? Somewhere the term Net income has gotten lost in this thread.

my numbers were my net, if I made 100k before expenses i`d be single, living in my truck and eating 3 meals a day off the dollar menum ,my cost per mile is 76 cents and thats with the equipment paid off, if I only cleared 24 cpm i`d go flip burgers for a pay increase.
I run as efficently as I can without beating myself up, my 11 hours are spent behind the wheel doing 75 (legally) I rarely tarp, I never wait to unload or load and I piss away maybe an hour a week between fueling and pre and post trip, everything I do is planned around keeping the truck rolling for an honest 11 hours 6 days a week, i`m not out there killing myself but turning 4300 a week is about my weekly average.
as far as guys saying their running at a net loss i`ll say this, i`ve got a tuned up kw at home that pulls a lowboy and my wife made very little money last year as far as the irs is concerned :lol:
