Fuel Haulers make that as company driver and go home every day. The math ain't mathing, you could've bought you as a used truck for $25,000 that you own and made way more money. 144,000 as lease driver is trash. Minimum as a owner operator is $200,000 - $300000. With low overhead and you keep all kindz of money. Don't ever lease a truck. Save up money and buy your shyt outright

      That's way over minimum wage. Even in California with their dumbass 20 a hour minimum wage, you aren't making 71k. If she's working 40 hours, she's making 34 a hour. Even if she's working 65 hours, she's still making just under 23 a hour. There's a lot of states that have minimum wage way lower than California's too. In Louisiana it's 7.25 and there's 12 or 13 other states with the same.

It should be "how I grossed 100k as a truck driver" however hats down to you. Running a 70hr clock, putting in the work, literally keeping your country moving (people tend to be assholes to truckers not knowing that if they went on strike they would literally be holding the country by the balls as truckers keep the building material, clothing, FOOD and all other things on the move), you got your own business grind and you making 70k+ which is more than the average yearly...

    I’m a W-2 worker that makes $106,000 … but my company also put in $2,500 a month into my pension. Pay $2,400 a month for a family health insurance premium (I pay 15% company pay 85%). I get 15 days paid of for a value of $50 an hr X 120 hrs = $6,000.
    So I actually make $170,800.

    Lol that's not enough for the bs we put up with I quickly learned when I started trucking that I needed 250k plus per year for it to even make sense I'm not even happy unless I push 350 you can literally make 80-100k a year working normal jobs if you are not dumb

      It’s not ez to make 80-100k a year at a normal job though. If that was true the median income in the US would be way higher.

    One thing I learned as a business owner it’s not so much about what you make it’s what you keep. FYI the trucking industry is ok but the overhead is to dam high .
