Thanks for the info, Michael.

Are you quoting the cpm in CAD or USD?

Climbing in and out of the cars in all kinds of weather, making sure they are strapped down nice and tight. The harder part would be the proper distribution of weight and making sure you're not stacked too high. I think you need to be nimble and flexible. Those of a larger build would find it more challenging, I think.

I was/am thinking of hauling cars once I get a year or two OTR experience, as it seems pretty interesting and cool to me. Plus I hear the pay is not too shabby either.

Awesome news, glad it worked out so well in your favour without having to go "legal". Good luck on your next endeavour.

P.S. Love the word 'craptacular' :)

Um, so, I guess I won't be posting my first year results that I spent last weekend putting into a spreadsheet one week at a time. I needed to do a little more number crunching to figure out what the exact difference would have been driving company, which is why I didn't post the draft I started.

I'll still be doing the analysis for my own benefit. Let me know if you want me to share the actual numbers with the forum, since that has been a frequent complaint about the forbidden topic for some time now.

I would love to see it.

Yes, please feel free to post here, you've done all the hard work, would love to see your #'s. Thanks in advance.

So do you guys think it would be a smart idea for me to get into a lease right out of school? The companies sure seem to like it.

Just kidding! But I'm glad I found this site as I would have walked right into a lease like a lemming.

Thanks Brett!

Sounds like they were part of the "Doushe" franchise of dealerships. I still don't know why people get jobs in the service industry when they are not even personable. Anyways, I found that if you go in there with the attitude that you are ready to buy, and have a quote from "the competition" they are much more likely to be helpful. Can't find the keys! That's a good one. Honestly, they don't want to waste their time with tire kickers.

Seems a little pricey though at almost $2,200 … good idea, awful price

Hats off to you Tyler for doing it! I wish you the best of luck in the future and hope that you get to spend the important moments with your family. God Bless.

Daniel and Craig - Are you guys driving the lightweight trucks in order to make that pay?

I thin it is lightweight ... as per Daniel B. --- " I averaged 1k net per week when I was out on the road as a solo company driver in a LW truck."

Making $1,000 NET a week ain't bad ... and I hope by NET he means what he actually keeps after taxes and all other deductions.

Two wrongs don't make a right. Just 'cause someone else drives like a dooshe, that doesn't give you the right to do the same. Some one would be the wiser. Plus this guy likes to use his horn indiscriminately, he must have a small "disco stick"
