FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

Oh

 

You would have to pretty lazy to not make money at FCC once you factor in fuel discounts and everything they pay for ...I came to FCC off a high percentage reefer contract and make more money here , the benefits available here to owner ops are outstanding!

 

Thank you this is going to help me out alot.

 

Dropped my load off in Lancaster and I've swung by the Dallas drop yard for a 10. Ain't no way I'm staying at that ####ty TA or Flying J. Not that there would be parking there anyways at this time of night.

I'll wake up at a quarter to 7 tomorrow and head over to Duncanville for a load to Shell Rock, IA. One of my favorite loads because it's longer and pretty light.

Got 3,117 paid miles on my next paycheck too, which is not too shabby me thinks.

 

What I love at this company is averaging 3k miles a week not too many other companies that have freight like we do.

 

Last year, I averaged 3300 miles per week over the entire year. That's just dividing my total for the year by number of weeks. I went home for a week a couple times.

 

Heading to Omaha today. Trailer is about a month overdue on service so may or may not have to deal with that after I empty out. If I’m grabbing a loaded trailer at CB then it’ll just be a matter of giving them a heads up and dropping it, if I’m live loading then it’ll be a bit more time consuming.Then hopefully heading home. Will be at least a day late getting to the house . Hopefully next time out can keep Bad Penny running and won’t have any holidays to work around. I will have to get it serviced on the second week out (It’s about 4000 miles from being due).
Last week I got about 2000 miles (short week because of hometime), this week will be just shy of 2700. Next week will be short 3 days for hometime, I’ll have 1170 when I deliver this, but probably will be near or better than 1700 by the time I get home Thursday night depending what they have me doing to get home.

 

Met up with Mr. Jailbird aka Ryan at the cb terminal today and took him out for lunch ...he's alright ! ...his parole date is Sept 20th .

 

Probably why I see owner ops here with long hood tractors.
