re: How much should a company truck affect your salary?

the average truck note is >$1,000/month now, so with insurance and gas and maintenance, that’s what, $1,600/month minimum? That’s almost $19,000/year.

40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year, +$10/hr, 40x50x10= $20,000. So yeah, a company truck is worth in the ball park of $10/hr.

Only if you can get rid of a personal vehicle, drop all of those costs and then use the company vehicle exactly line you would have used the personal vehicle. If you still have to keep a personal vehicle for personal use, then the only benefit of a company vehicle is lack of fuel, mileage depreciation and maintenance costs for work-related driving.
