From 1 landstar driver to another if not making 2.25 a mile or more for all miles including deadhead you just about covering your cost. I’m in the boat as you no payments on nothing. Been here 23yrs. Drive safe. Merry Christmas to your family.

After doing a bunch of research, I prefer going off money per day. It’s easier for me. Then I’m not worried about taking a cheaper rate. If I had the capital I’d be there now!

Step that’s all I ever pulled for Landstar. Do you have tarps? I have 1 32 ft single flap 8 ft drop and 2- 12 ft 8 ft drops flaps on both ends. Parachute material sides.

@michaelrybicki7964 I have 3 8ft drop traps I haven’t opened them up yet. I bought all my equipment from a former landstar driver. Might do a video on my traps and equipment in the future

Dont forget landstar takes 35% so if he is getting 250 per mile he actually gets 1.75 just letting anyone new know make sure you take out there portion of what it says on the board
@FadellTrucking7 ай бұрын
@dansdiesel767 if you know your cost of operation you’ll know how to make money even with the 35% take out.

@@FadellTrucking I understand and we all have expenses just making sure newer people understand that if you notice I didn't say you couldn't make money or anything like that but a lot of people jumped in trucking during COVID because they didn't understand stuff like that I e been running 20 years I understand how it works all to well

Thought 35% only applies to Van drivers not Flatbed?
@FadellTrucking7 ай бұрын
@chrismoody5977 it does. On the platform side we get 72% 65% to the truck and 7% to the trl.
