Rate my month! How did I do as an Owner Operator?

In my neck of the woods it's called getting the job done..

 

we call it jimmy rigging in mine

 

Well when in Rome you know ..

 

We call it ghetto

 

@GPD, nice month but I couldn't run that hard. I like 4 days out but I live where there is a lot of freight and it pays decent year round.

I should try what you did sometime but I'm getting older and set in my ways.

 

one day i'll be a real truck driver

 

Is 5.2mi/gal normal for your truck? I've seen seen newer freightliners in the 7-8.5mi/gal range.

 

Im not sure you can say jimmy anymore
I think that was removed from the book of offensive terms

I heard having a favorite color is next

 

That's one thing that sucks in reefer world you'll see shorter runs under 500 miles with a late delivery the following day that basically eats up 2 days. Even though rates are solid right now it's still a challenge to get the right (imo) compensation on those to meet those daily revenue goals. And multi-droppers too.
