Running with JCT, Part Deux

That first week settlement is all yours including fuel surcharge. They set you up for success in every way, I just can't figure out how people not succeed here.

 

You have a point, but it what it's made me do is over fuel I think. I'm running the numbers as I go and chasing max dollars. Maybe this will change once I get a few weeks in and understand how to manage fuel better.

 

They don't control their biggest controllable expense. Furlw. They fuel like a company driver still. Or they get in the habit of turning down loads and then wonder why they don't get offered any good runs.

This is how I found the $3.41 in Fresno. Now that I have free showers at Pilot/Flying J for this month and next, I will be more cheap on fuel.

There is another one, but can remember where it is.

 

JCT LOVES teams.

 

I look at my fuel gauge as as I get 1400 miles off a full tank so I set my tripometer to zero ever time I fuel and know when I'm getting close. I of course use all the gadjets to find lowest fuel in area and an app to keep track. Honestly I only denied 1 load and after my DM called me and set up a swap with it I took it. After that my DM never sent me back to the underground caverns again lol

 

If you haven't heard Wilco Hess is now Pilot at exit 77 off I-81 in Va. also at exit 205 and 291 off I-81 in Va. just found this out last couple days.

Mr. Mister thanks for the response about stile just hadn't seen him post in a while.

 

Yeah, won't see much of him anymore.

He was surprised that folks were asking about him, and appreciates your concern.

 

Wasn't it was Stile that was testing out the flow below system? If it was, would love an update on how that is working out for him.

 

No, that was me.

As far as test results go, here are the numbers so far.
Total miles: 55252
MPG: 8.18

That's a difference of over 1 MPG since I installed the FlowBelow in May.
