When it’s all said and done you’ll look back at this as a great learning experience. More older and experienced people will point out all the cons of what you guys are doing but I’m a firm believer that most younger people have to see for themselves. You guy’s will be just fine, just keep grinding, be safe. pay your taxes, don’t get complacent, keep your head on a swivel and good things will happen.

I know a truck driver who has been driving many years. They are struggling to get into a good company. What companies would you suggest for me to tell them about so they can stop getting with bad companies? Thank you for your help 🙂

[@jacobgatlin7485]

The trucking companies have mastered how to rob us blind. I can no longer accept less than just to pretend I'm a business owner. If I can make just as much as a company driver. Why should we keep paying for these trucks and staying on the road. This was a perfect break down my brother. It has really helped me realize. I'm going home with my family to get me a local job. I can accept that. I'm done helping companies pay for trucks with no real difference between company pay versus us o/o

[@NightCrawler810]

FYI most big carriers employ drivers to be relief and recovery. If you will be off over a week, you can hire a relief and recovery driver to drive your truck until you come back to work, and what they earn covers your truck note and that’s how you don’t come back in the hole

[@BIGDADDYKNOWSBEST1011]

[@1rakiim]

[@thehovermatic1243]

$70k for a team is not great. The truck is running most of the time so the risk of a catastrophic accident is 2x as much as solo. A solo driver should be able to net $400/day or $120,000 for rolling 300 days in a year.

Leasing is never worth man. If you want to responsibility of a truck with none of the reward then it is for you. Stack your cash and just go finance a truck, prime already charging your 3 times more than what the truck is worth and if you really wanna stay with them once your get your own truck you can lease onto there 0/0 side. When I first started my career at prime i wasted my first 4 years leasing at prime, never going home, barely making more than company drivers unless I trained and ended up paying 200k for a truck I will never own before I wised up, got myself a 50k truck payment only 900 a month instead of over 5k like prime and I get home all the time instead of once a season. Dont waste as many years there as I did man, please come off the prime coolaid.

[@1rakiim]

I got to say this bro , you got to build and learn before jumping into something I can’t have the same path as you ,

[@shaydesofblue2281]

Yea I left prime within a month when I started lease. I spent an hour doing some math and was like yep, i gotta get out of this scam.

[@aqua6613]

I fell for the "own your own truck" kool-aid too...then the warranty ran out and the repair bills ate me up. Load revenue hit a slump and that was it. Won't own another truck again. I love driving and I love the freedom of doing lease over being a company guy with forced dispatch and not having the freedom to go and stop wherever I choose to and to go whichever way I choose to go. You might pay more but coming from dart and going to prime and seeing how my truck was in ans out of the shop in less than a day, they do offer up some superior service and amenities compared to where I came from, so much like a 7/11 you pay a higher price for convenience. I only signed up for an 8 month lease to check out the difference between a Cascadia and my old t680. The fuel mileage and their steep discount in fuel makes it worth it for me. Fuel is where your money is at and where it will always be. Just did my first load and the rate for load revenue was better than where I came from. My fleet manager is amazing and so far I have nothing bad to say over here. It will always be what you make it. I know some people are still sitting around in Springfield and haven't left saying they have no loads, but I just showed up in person to the line up and was offered a load within 5 minutes straight out the gate. If people are sitting at the yard enjoying the steaks, massages and the gym room it's by their own choice and I don't blame them...I know my money will be going to the massage therapist and the chiropractor over there 😆

What if I told you that you could be making that driving solo booking your own loads. Also drove teams for a time and was knocking out 6000-8000 a week on a dedicated account (before I became an owner operator). If you're happy where you're at then great. But keep in mind you are leaving money on the table. My record sits at just above 14k (gross) for the week

[@1rakiim]

I’d love the information bro! Me and my bro are interested in moving

[@KevinDR1987]

@@1rakiim the company I'm leased onto is a small carrier and requires you to bring your own equipment. They do have some trailers to rent but don't think there are any available as of right now. They are extremely selective on who they hire on and require 2 years experience minimum. Booking your own freight isn't for those that aren't self starters and can be a challenge in bad freight markets (like right now).

[@MC-fs5eb]

the mileage overage is because the loads pay zip code to zip code and not address to address... the mileage overage is what you see as your lease completion bonus. your numbers are spot on... BUT THIS IS TRASH when you can make this or more as a trainer and not have to split it or make that amount for the month as a solo driver. Not trying to dim your progress but solos net 2k a week not driving nearly as hard. Keep learning .. it's not a bad company at all but you'll see the loop holes after a while.

[@ChrisNevaMiss17]

I’ll put it this was very bluntly. Everyday that you’re not on the road driving, you’re going to be in the whole $1,000. I drove 6 weeks, took 3 days off, and it took me a full 2 weeks to recover. That meant a paycheck of $0 and then next week a paycheck of $300. I then drove for another 6 weeks and after taking off 3 days, I ended up staying for an extra 5 days because of an illness. So in total 8 days off the road. I didn’t receive a paycheck for 6 straight weeks. This is my opinion, but prime is out here conning the lease drivers. I quit after the 4th week of no paycheck. And then get a $350 cleaning note for the truck. Its an actual scam on some con artist type level. Watch out bro.

How much is your lease payments?! You're way overpaying for that truck Bro.

[@casebycase7750]

Brother do you mean you're not including, or you excluded something? I keep hearing you say secluding you used it more than once. It literally means to keep someone (i.e. a person) away from other people. I don't see how that is contextual in this scenario given the topic. I had to stop watching because I was getting confused. However, I will say this, a solo driver can run 3,000 miles alone it sounded like the most you guys were getting was 4,000 miles per week with 2 drivers and it sounds like it would be better to be solo in that case. It sounded like there was some fluctuating in the rates that you were paid one week $3.00 per mile and the next $2.00, that does not sound like there's any consistency with how they pay. Either way it does not sound like your gain is very high as an Owner Op; you all should be grossing way more. I think leasing with these major trucking companies is a big rip off but if it works for you then it works for you.

It’s never a good idea to post your earnings on social media. That’s all I have to say.

Nobody asked you to post yours that’s all that matters

I am currently a lease owner operator with prime and I have been noticing after accepting a load my estimated revenue drops from what the initial estimated revenue was. Can anyone who’s been a prime driver for a while explain this please? For example I’ll get a pre plan and it’ll say it’s paying $4,100 and I’ll accept it but then after a day or 2 it’ll drop to 3,900 Can someone please explain this. Thanks.

[@innergy444within5]

I did the application for prime inc. I’m waiting to get approved. What’s your driver code?

[@1rakiim]

I'm really not trying to hate on you dude, but I hope you realize that if you're a good driver you are worth way more money than this.

[@1rakiim]

I feel ya , but again we’ve made more 🫡 last year months I’m just doing this to show you stuff happens .

[@LegacyFarmandHomestead]

@@1rakiim think about this for a minute. If it was better for the company for you to be a company driver, they wouldn't even allow lease operators. The only reason prime and other companies have lease operators is because it moves the risk onto the individual leasing and takes the risk off of them. Prime makes more profit from their lease operators then they do from company drivers. When you really look into the math, there is no disputing this fact.

@@LegacyFarmandHomestead for sure you right 😂 you wouldn’t have to tell me that bro. I peep that either way but I enjoy the freedom I have without anybody up my ass over the road. I enjoy where I don’t want to go over the road I go home when I want. I understand what it takes to be your own boss you learn a lot and it’s nothin wrong with that. Plus like I said these are really all not the best months I’m just showing the reality if our truck is promised to not breakdown or that drunk driver Doesnt hit me we’d bring in 2500-5000 each week easy 🫡 I appreciate you tho bro.
