Default Pay per Mile?

Hello

Im looking find out what others are seeing for compensation.
I have been offered a position and they are paying .35 a mile, I have a few years of experiance and this is going to be with flatbed multi axles... They said I should make between 45-55K a year, they have a varrying payscale + load and unload pay, tarp ETC so its more then just miles. for compensation.
In some ways I kind of like the idea of doing more then just driving, its nice to get out of the cab every so often

So what your pay scale like?
Van ?
Flat Bed ?
Multi Axle?
Tanker ?

Thanks New to the board but not new to OTR
Dave

Seriously 43 views and no comments? No one is willing to say how much they make, or don't make?

If you don't want to say exactly on a public forum I understand but maybe a PM or something?

Cryogenic tankers..52.5cpm on anything OVER 200 miles in one direction. Under that, it's all hourly. On mileage, when truck stops for any reason, except layover/off duty, on the clock..

Hey Dave, I'm also looking to get back into trucking. I spoke with Melton and with my exp. they will start me at .38. Before the massive pay cuts I was at .39 with Boyd Bros back in 07.
