You guys think FCC will ever give company drivers a choice to fuel at Love's?
I know they let the owner operators do it because one of them replied to me about it on this thread. Do the company guys ever push to fuel at Love's or not really?
Love's is where it's at. They're building a lot of new stores with no end in sight and there new stores are nice. They have the best rewards points too I think.MidWest_MacDaddy Thanks this. -
MidWest_MacDaddy and BeHereNow97 Thank this.

It really surprised me and was very happy in getting the extra pay.
They sure look out for youMidWest_MacDaddy, BigR and dmcompton71 Thank this. -
That's nice that was the only negative I could think of was that I didn't think you guys (company drivers) could fuel at Love's. Really nice to hear you usually get to Platinum Level for your free monthly showers there.Last edited: Jun 9, 2021
MidWest_MacDaddy Thanks this. -
Yeah, it is nice. But like I said, it's kind of hit-or-miss just depends on the fuel prices and where it is cheaper. Some months I fuel at Pilot Flying J more, other months it is loves. Every once in awhile a TA or Petro. But those are usually pretty rare, at least where I run anyways
MidWest_MacDaddy and BeHereNow97 Thank this. -
Another thing about the fuel solution, it will just automatically kick out what it thinks is the fastest route to where you are going from where you came from. But, if you have time on the load and we're going to stop by the house, or want to take a different route or something because of traffic or construction you could just let your DM know and tell them where you would like to fuel and they will change it. Example, going from Kansas City to the Dallas area the fuel solution will always want to send you down 69/75, I usually always run I-35. So I just send my DM a message and they change it. It is as simple as that.

On the FCC website it says:
Our Midwest Region runs freight between Nebraska and Pennsylvania delivering in the following states: NE, IA, IL, IN, MN, KS, WI, MO, and OH. You can expect to run 2,500 to 2,800 miles a week with the option to go home every weekend. Mileage pay is based on experience and work history; our Midwest Region company drivers earn an average of $75k per year! All of our freight is driver no touch freight and we offer 70% drop and hooks.
I live in NC but been thinking about moving up to the Midwest. Do you think Sioux Falls would qualify for the Midwest Regional Fleet since it's a straight shot (from Omaha) on I-29 and only 3 hours north of Omaha/Fremont?
If not, would Sioux Falls qualify for the OTR van division of FCC? FCC doesn't have a hiring map area but I would think Sioux Falls would be within their hiring area for their OTR division, have you ever met any drivers from South Dakota? I know they have a lot of North Carolina drivers if I were to stay here.
Also I saw this (quoted below in italics) and I like this a lot. My previous OTR company was no forced dispatch in all 5 boroughs of NYC as well. I do not want to touch that city so good to here I wouldn't have to deal with it if I didn't want to (which I wouldn't want to). How often is the OTR Van Division in the Northeast?
Not forced into New York City but receive $0.06 per mile extra to deliver freight into the 5 boroughs of New York City
