They do not "start" at $70,000 a year. As of 2010 it takes a UPS driver 3 years to hit full scale wage which is around $60,000. All package car drivers make the same wage. As for vacation, 6-9 weeks of paid leave comes around the 15th year of service. It takes a driver 1 full year of service to get 2 full paid weeks of vacation with a maximum of 7 weeks paid vacation time at around the 20 year service mark. Source: I'm a UPS driver
