    Sort of a follow up on my previous question (http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...or/251512-what-are-your-load-preferences.html), but each week, what are your averages for the following
    1. Miles run
    2. percent of the time you're running empty
    3. Gross Income
    4. Profit (Once you subtract insurance, fuel, etc.)
    5. Average Pay per Mile (loaded)
    6. Days worked
    7. days Working
    8. Day's spent at home
    Please let me know. Collecting research for my Masters in Transportation and the more feedback the better!

    It astounds me that a complete stranger thinks we are going to give that info out on a public forum.

    Yeaaaa I'd say. Yeeep. Mmmmmhmmm. Saw a thread the other day a broker posted about some o/o took off on him bc the broker gave him his fuel s/c before he even left in the direction to go pick up the load. Said he took his fuel s/c and disappeared, LMAO. Don't think he liked it much when I told him it's about just wha you scumbag brokers deserve.

    One week I am getting over 2,500 miles a week, and the next week not even 2,000 miles. The vast majority of the time I make my deliveries on time if I am not held up by a shipper or receiver. I have a diesel power APU. I think my dispatcher has too many on his board. I have switched dispatchers, because the other wouldn't run me. The new one only runs me good every other week. I sat over 5 hours yesterday for a load, and today, I have acknowledged a load, but no load assignment.
