Here's another interesting pay comparison video for drivers out there!

Recently, we've had two drivers with the same trucks, same payments, and the same mileage bring home two vastly different paycheques, $5000 and $2000.

The answer to this large difference lies in the two drivers' fuel efficiency; one driver drove at 5.8 MPG while the other one drove at 8 MPG. Why was there such a big difference? One of the trucks was governed at 65 MPH speed while the other one was unlocked by the driver.

In this video, Ronen breaks down the two pay statements from the two drivers, and explains the factors that lead to the huge pay discrepancy between the two drivers. He also offers some quick tips on the many different ways you can save extra money on the road as an OTR driver.
