I hit my weekly GOAL

I already know some people are gonna say it’s AI or fake… but honestly, as long as I know it’s real, that’s what matters and yes i’m real trucker
2 years ago I was an Amazon driver bringing home about $1,600 every 2 weeks.
When people kept saying trucking was dead, I didn’t buy into it. Same industry, different mindset. Not all truckers move the same or think the same.
Now I’m making 3x my old monthly Amazon income in just one week.
Hit my goal for this week too ✅
Posting this to show what’s possible when you trust your instincts instead of listening to the noise. On my way to drop my last load for this week, Stay safe out there 🫡

Well the app is AI lol. But the numbers might be real. How many app users have you got?
we-meet-again@reddit
What app is that

Man I can’t wait to get there… you Owner op?
Little_Walrus169@reddit (OP)
Yeah I’m an owner op. You’ll get there bro, just stay consistent and learn the numbers.
PhilosopherSad7457@reddit
For sure, yeah I’m already scrunching numbers on my down time even tho I’m just a company driver rn… but they consistently book loads at an avg of 2.25/mile, so when I factor in my pay+mpg/price of gas (not including other overhead) they may make a little over 1k each load, they have plenty trucks almost 100 so I guess it’s sustainable based on how long they’ve been in business, I’m not the guru here but it does seem like some undercutting at times

What kind of truck did you buy for your first truck
Little_Walrus169@reddit (OP)
2018 Volvo vnl

You running your own authority or leased onto a company?
nicerakk@reddit
You a team truck? If not, those miles must have carry over from the previous week. Almost 4600 miles on a 70 hr clock with 5 pickups and deliveries is highly improbable for a solo. My verdict is that's not a true 1 week load plan if you have a load from the previous weeks pay period that you deliver on the first day of this pay period. Your inflating your numbers. But it's still a solid pay on your weekly settlement. Just under $3 a mile. Good job.
Little_Walrus169@reddit (OP)
Yeah you’re right. I had one load from the previous weekend that delivered at the start of this week, so it rolled into these numbers. I still hit my goal though
vfittipaldi@reddit
This is exactly why nobody should believe the "Weekly Gross" posts. The load that carries over makes a huge difference and its no longer a true weekly profit.
nicerakk@reddit
Incredible week for certain! 🔥

You should start selling courses and mentor memberships for how to get those loads and big money.
Little_Walrus169@reddit (OP)
😂 Nah, I’m just trying to run my truck and keep things moving. Still learning every day.
Physicballs1655@reddit
I was just screwing around after seeing 2 posts from the same “dude” selling his trucking business management app for truckers after learning to code from the front seat.

What app is this? Pretty cool…
Little_Walrus169@reddit (OP)
loadbuck

Thank you!
Exciting-Car-3516@reddit
It’s possible. Depends on lanes, speed you run, how good and efficient the pickups/deliveries are etc. not possible weekly but you can do about 500 miles a day average running recaps so at least 3500 a week
nicerakk@reddit
I agree with 3500. Not 4530. Even drop and hooks would be difficult. It would have to be something like shuttling trailers between 2 location for a week that are 650 miles away from each other. With the ability to get your 10 hr on each site without going to a truck stop
Exciting-Car-3516@reddit
That’s correct. I agree. In my opinion it is possible once in a while but it’s not something you could do steadily, unless you ride dirty
nicerakk@reddit
More likely scenario is that a long mile run from the previous week got delivered on the first day of the new week
Exciting-Car-3516@reddit
Yeah I don’t know the correct scenario myself I was just saying “congrats” but arguing it’s a very good week and good luck for next week. With the holidays and all everything looks bland
Little_Walrus169@reddit (OP)
Yeah, one load rolled over from the weekend because I was late on delivery. Thanks brother.
Exciting-Car-3516@reddit
Keep up the good work driver! 💪
nicerakk@reddit
Definitely a great settlement for a solo.
Naw_im_sayin@reddit
You were an Amazon driver doing CDL semi truck stuff? Or Amazon driver in the package vehicles?
Little_Walrus169@reddit (OP)
Package delivery
