OK, I will be the first to bite. Who do you work for and what type of freight do you haul to make $100,000/yr?

Trucker's calculator in hand. :wink:

$100,000 per year / 45 weeks per year (I assume you take SOME vacation) = $2222.22 per week.

$2222.22 per week - $250.00 per week lumping = $1972.22

$1972.22 / 2500 miles per week = $0.78 per mile :roll:

And here's where it gets fun:

1. 2500 miles per week / 4 days = 625 miles per day, plus loading and unloading. 625 miles / 55 mph = 11.36 hours per day driving :roll: . Way to show that you are fudging your logs.

2. $1000 per month for loading and unloading paid "under the table". Way to show you are committing tax fraud.

You are a liar, areyouvi3t.

hahaha i know it's hard to believe, but trust me, it's true as the bible, i have witnesses. i give you a hint, my company is not really in the trucking business to make money off of hauling freight, it's in the business of what avondale PA. is known for.

Let me know which mushroom company you drive for so I can stop in on my way home and ask them for a job making 90k a year.
