    I once read that the most under used phrase in motorcycling is "you did not..."

    If I had a dollar for every ex Navy SEAL or guy that hauled nuclear missiles and the Govt gave him a M-60 to protect himself with or...

    I'd have a lot of dollars anyway

    Aw man. I really am a master welder. Now no one's gonna believe me. Guess I'll have to get some M-60 rounds from the nuclear weapon transporter and make some belt buckles.

    It's possible. A lot of our drivers would run like that consistently, paid percentage that works out to roughly 42 cpm (if you factor in the fuel bonus) and be home reliably on weekends. Not really a weekend though. Home Friday night, leaving Sunday afternoon.

    But that was before they went with e-logs. Now those days are a distant memory and nobody's happy. :biggrin_25513:

    We've had our share of troll activity this week. The TTR staff does a great job of policing our playground.

    CT does not use ELogs and do not pay percentage.
