80K for a owner operator is shit, he is not bring home 80K in salary, out of that 80K he has to pay for the Truck, Fuel, Insurance, Repairs, Self Employment Taxes, License Fees, and a whole host of other things My Guess that is eating about 50% of that revenue way, so then his pay is probably around 40-45K gross profit before taxes.
