Glad someone already said it. Yeah big difference between lease and own…if she owned one she’d prolly own an older truck that costs way more for maintenance
@@omararchivaldo3632same. Day driving is way more taxing on you than otr. I did otr for years and was a lot more rested, could stop when I wanted. Now it’s go go go. And MUCH longer hours.
I’m a local owner operator and last year I made 270k- about 50k in fuel and 10k in maintenance. Netted 200k after all expenses. You gotta know how and where.
Facts bro, I was a driver working for a trucking company and I was making $3,750-4,500 a week . Had a company credit card for fuel & food and everytime I arrived early I was given $200 for a hotel but I could keep it & sleep in the truck 😂 I made an extra $12k a year just sleeping 🛌 .. plus $100 tip every time I arrived and left a job.
@@drozycoder2007 why is that cap lol my brother is making just around this amount weekly and he has his own truck. Not at all judging a book by its cover but do half of y’all talking on this subject even work in the trucking industry? Lol
If you were familiar with the industry, many companies offer drivers lease-to-own programs. After the lease is over, drivers have the option (and the majority usually do) to buy out the remainder of the lease
Ma'am I make $140,000 as a company driver in the oilfield running hazmat. Hell, I know sand haulers that $100,000 as a company driver. 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
Why do people have to try to outdo others. Like really childish, grow up. She is informing not bragging. Oilfield dude? Of course you make more and you should. You don't have to be an ass about the fact it's easier for you to blow up and die. You also have endorsements to make more money
@MrRobb34 no she pay taxes on the 71k, all expenses while she is away from home are tax deductible including thee truck payment, fuel, food, insurance, maintenance...
I’m a female truck driver. I made 84k last year and paid $0.00 fuel, maintenance, lease payment, permits and insurance. Oh, and I slept at home every night.
Yeah, you can be a local company driver and make that. There are ways to make over $100k trucking, hotshot for example. Or you could drive heavy haul or specialty loads. Any driving position making that kind of money is long hours on the road but working hard isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
I was once a truck🚛 driver before God intervened with some good weekly earnings, Every family has a person who breaks the chain of poverty in their house I pray you become that one and be successful in life 🙏
Success doesn't work overnight and nobody becomes a millionaire or billionaire by working for others depending on good investment brings millions of dollars and consistency brings billions
She has the same responsibility as an owner operator. I leased, paid off, now own the truck. Not any difference. The stress is the same. When the truck breaks down, nobody else is gonna pay to fix it.
50k went to truck payments, that's why her profit looks off. Once she finishes paying for the truck, she'll be great. One thing a lot of people forget is that she makes her own schedule also!!
The bank owns the truck. 80 hours a week for $70,000/ year ? I couldn’t do it. Glad we have hard workers like her or else this country would be at a stand still.
I am a otr trucker, by law you are not legally able to work 80 hours a week, it's 70 and then you have to do a 34 hour reset, sure 70 hours for 70k I'd still crap, but if your going to talk about a otr truckers life, get the facts right, dot rules and regulations are what truckers follow, if you want to be a trucker for a long time.

She did not include taxes, maintenance and insurance costs. Insurance is a huge expense for truckers and will drop that 70k to about 45k regular maintenance will drop you another 10k leaving you with 35k before taxes, which will take about 35% of that.
I don’t know if she’s lying but you could make more without owning/leasing your truck and it will be less stressful too. I made 78k last year after taxes but could have made more if I had and endorsement like Twic or hazmat. My husband is local company driver and gets 80k a year after taxes.
70k is a realistic number but it's also possible to have a really bad year leasing. What if you get sick and have to still make that lease payment? Or an accident, rising fuel prices etc. It's a gamble on how much you will earn.
I'm a W-2 fuel hauler and i made 97k last year and started in March this year should be in the 120-130k range. I don't have to worry about maintenance, truck payment, or fuel

@RamonEspitia-vn4xn If your cousin is averaging 3000k a week, I would guess he's the highest paid Lyft driver ever. My brother inlaw did the black suv thing and wasn't making near that amount. In fact, he sold his suv and now does something else.
We forgot all about those permits, insurance, taxes, medical insurance, and she might own it but it’s leased out. Hey, if she feels good about it, she wins 🎉
She makes $71,000, not nearly six figures. As a business what you make is income minus expenses minus taxes. It’s much different than a W-2 employee where what you make is income before taxes.
some leases offer truck maintenance with your payment. Tour truck can break mid highway and next day they will give u new one. Not sure what plan she got though. Too little information
@michaelc9128 reparations has nothing to do with this. I agree she is wrong with how she started the statement. But you know NOTHING!! ABOUT BLACK HISTORY. Don't ever speak on what you are MISINFORMED about. Europeans, USA, east, west, will pay for the CRIMEA AGAINST HUMANITY THEY COMMITTED ON BLACK PEOPLE all over the world and are still doing in in the form of modern slavery by France and USA. You know nothing about black people.
She did not add tires, depreciation,break downs,insurance and many other miscellaneous. Her 71k net is now reduced to under fifìty thousand a year. What a deal not to mention she works about 70 hours a week. Break it all down it looks to me like around $16 pr hr with no overtime. Where do I sign up?
@buyck50 I don't drive, but I work at a trucking company. Every otr driver we have makes more than her without having to worry about anything that comes with owner operating
The math ain't mathing.. Firstly most people seem to skip the fact that you are leasing which by no terms means that you "own" the truck therefore making you a lease operator NOT owner opp. Secondly the title of your video is kinda misleading but we can get over it. 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... So you go trucker, my hat's off to you.. Keep on keeping on
Until they fire you. Walmart hiring truck drivers for approximately over six figures however they doing it for a limited time and they're not keeping that two ways forever. You can take the risk of secured job with possible termination or build your own business.
Can we just fucking acknowledge that mabye she doesn’t care if she’s home, 70 k and up is plenty of money to be happy, and it’s not like she plans on doing it forever if she has a lease.
You acting like all business owners start off loaded with cash. She’s getting there. Next thing you know she has people working for her and raking in over a million a year. That’s how my friend’s dad did it with his.
@@deathbyvanity1955yes that’s bad. She is pretty much a company driver that’s responsible for all the maintenance and break downs. The point is, she is throwing away money on a lease payment while building no equity in a truck that she will never own.
I'm in the transportation business... Those expensive are very low... 20k in gas, she not driving very far... The average trucking person drive 2600 miles per week... Fantasy world
This isn't true, but if it was it wouldn't matter because the end goal for her is to pay off her truck and then get a loan for a second one to hire a driver for. It's the difference between being a wage slave (every commenter in here trying to make jokes) and an actual boss.
I don’t understand how her maintenance is so low either maybe it’s covered in her lease agreement and that was just miscellaneous stuff that wasn’t covered cause oil changes for the year would be more than that
Guarantee this is a lie. There's absolutely no way she was only spending $400 a week on diesel, especially last year. You'd go through $400 a day on diesel.
@ 4 $ per gallon she only use 5000 gallons. @ a average of 2400 miles a week she could only run for 12.5 weeks. Her numbers definitely don’t add up smh.
Fellow truck driver here. It ain’t cheap to run these trucks and she has a cheaper truck. And these fuel cost don’t help. Be thankful to these guys out sacrificing so much to deliver these loads to barely make any money.
You DO realize the country actually NEEDS truck drivers like her or it'd be at a standstill? The McDonalds manager wouldn't have a job if she didn't truck the food to the McDonald's. 🤡
@@TomikaKelly when did I say they weren’t needed? I’m just pointing out a simple observation. Clearly your feeble comprehension and mind is too worried about being an internet hero instead of understanding that the work to compensation ratio is fucked for truck drivers
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.
so she makes like 50k? ..and is never home and has a job with insane danger risk. lease liability, and sitting 24/7. sleeping at truck stops . alone at night as a woman? I'll pass.
You're right! The current market might give opportunities to maximize profit within a short term, but in order to execute such strategy, you must be a skilled practitioner.

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
@@owenrossi6032 I know I’m a trucker bro. But you don’t make that much starting off. But my point was most normal jobs don’t pay 80-100k per year lol that’s just a blatant lie.
She is cooking the books. Maintenance is way more and fuel cost is way more. Cap on the profit. Have to generate atleast 250k a year to make good profit
Drove for a LTL company grossed 98k. Net profit 64k. Health, dental, vision, 401k, PTO, and holiday pay. Company owned everything, I didn't pay one penny for anything on the truck.
“My truck lease payments…” “She owns her own truck” No, she doesn’t. If you LEASE something, you don’t OWN it. You lease for a period of time after which the asset goes back to the lessor. And yes, she MAKES six figures (revenue) but NETS less due to expenses (like EBIT). *SMH*
You’re obviously not educated in the trucking field so I’ll just explain. When it comes to leasing a truck from the company that you’re working for, the drivers do what’s called a “lease purchase”. You do own the truck after it’s paid off
@@chainarmor448 sounds like rent-to-own. I dont know what those interest payments look like, but sounds like they’d be making a killing off the financing deal alone off all the truckers quitting at various intervals along the way
The real money in trucking is as an O/O However, some drivers are more comfortable with being a company driver since there’s less responsibility and overhead.
A lease payment on a truck does not mean you own the truck sorry I don’t wanna hurt your feelings or cyber bully you but leasing and owning are two different things
Everyone else is worrying about her take home pay..i would like an explanation about her fuel cost of $19336 that truck must be a hybrid or fully electric lol
The best way to make money being an owner opp is to buy your truck straight cash. I made $200,000 my first year and profited $120,000 after ALL expenses.
Everyone also needs to understand that truck she owns is brand new and probably $150k so once she pays it off she won’t have that payment anymore. And she probably is paying more on it so it gets paid off faster. Once she doesn’t have a truck payment she’s gonna be rolling in cash.
I bought home 94k get off at 3p and weekend off. Taxes took out benefits 1750 1800 week net. I had my own truck trailer authority in 2003 it didn’t work for me. Keep trucking 😎

My brother inlaw did the black suv thing and wasn't making near that amount.

Still sucks but it's a job
She did not add tires, depreciation,break downs,insurance and many other miscellaneous. Her 71k net is now reduced to under fifìty thousand a year.

The math ain't mathing.. Firstly most people seem to skip the fact that you are leasing which by no terms means that you "own" the truck therefore making you a lease operator NOT owner opp. Secondly the title of your video is kinda misleading but we can get over it. 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... So you go trucker, my hat's off to you.. Keep on keeping on

Spent less on maintenance for her truck than I do on my 2018 toyota 😭😭
Can we just fucking acknowledge that mabye she doesn’t care if she’s home, 70 k and up is plenty of money to be happy, and it’s not like she plans on doing it forever if she has a lease.
Bro what, thats nothing
She actually only works like four months a year
It’s also really good if you’re not paying rent or bills. I had gotten rid of my apartment right before I took my son and husband on the road with me.
While you're on your tirade can you acknowledge that her maintenance numbers are way off
She obviously doesn’t own anything if she has a lease payment
You can “lease to own”
is that bad?
what's your point?

This isn't true, but if it was it wouldn't matter because the end goal for her is to pay off her truck and then get a loan for a second one to hire a driver for. It's the difference between being a wage slave (every commenter in here trying to make jokes) and an actual boss.

I don’t understand how her maintenance is so low either maybe it’s covered in her lease agreement and that was just miscellaneous stuff that wasn’t covered cause oil changes for the year would be more than that
That's what I was wondering. New unit with a lease and warranty so I bet it's all covered
The numbers are definitely made up or she has a magical truck that doesn't ever need a oil change or have Tire blowouts
She might have a new truck with a 3-year- warranty.

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.

“She owns her own truck”
No, she doesn’t. If you LEASE something, you don’t OWN it. You lease for a period of time after which the asset goes back to the lessor.
And yes, she MAKES six figures (revenue) but NETS less due to expenses (like EBIT).
*SMH*
You’re obviously not educated in the trucking field so I’ll just explain. When it comes to leasing a truck from the company that you’re working for, the drivers do what’s called a “lease purchase”. You do own the truck after it’s paid off
@@chainarmor448 sounds like rent-to-own. I dont know what those interest payments look like, but sounds like they’d be making a killing off the financing deal alone off all the truckers quitting at various intervals along the way
@@chainarmor448most least purchase folks do not finish their lease and that facts. For several reasons
Leasing is taking away too much. Meen! The rich just always gonna set their nets.
The real money in trucking is as an O/O However, some drivers are more comfortable with being a company driver since there’s less responsibility and overhead.
A lease payment on a truck does not mean you own the truck sorry I don’t wanna hurt your feelings or cyber bully you but leasing and owning are two different things
Go Clarissa! “It’s a truckers life baby”
It's a lease, she doesn't own it, she gets a bonus after the truck reaches 350k-400k odometer miles *OR* 3yrs of driving the same truck
Gross & net are not the same thing, folks. She's breaking it down for you, and she's correct. With every earning comes taxes & expenses.
I know I’m blessed! Thank you Yahawah
Everyone else is worrying about her take home pay..i would like an explanation about her fuel cost of $19336 that truck must be a hybrid or fully electric lol
Or she doesn't work much
I drive a truck as a w2 employee and I’m projected to make 130k. Those lease payments really mess you up.
I make 30 an hr working for a company. Made 100k last year with overtime and no stress of repairs and fuel costs.
The best way to make money being an owner opp is to buy your truck straight cash. I made $200,000 my first year and profited $120,000 after ALL expenses.
how much did u pay for your truck?
That math ain't mathing😢
Proud of you babe!!! ❤❤❤❤
So thats why when i google trucker salaries theyre always around 75k-85k for the majority of drivers.
Everyone also needs to understand that truck she owns is brand new and probably $150k so once she pays it off she won’t have that payment anymore. And she probably is paying more on it so it gets paid off faster. Once she doesn’t have a truck payment she’s gonna be rolling in cash.
I bought home 94k get off at 3p and weekend off. Taxes took out benefits 1750 1800 week net. I had my own truck trailer authority in 2003 it didn’t work for me. Keep trucking 😎
