Sorry additional information I am runner on eld 700 is dependent on dispatch not driver I keep doors shut
-
I haven't had a run anything less than 3500 miles a week since before all this covid stuff started... So I have no problem burning my 70.
-
What is your exact problem? -
Main problem is 70 frequently get decent loads meaning 500 plus however then frequently sit waiting on pulling trigger to possibly get to better lanes . Not sure if keep mouth shut bear with it or move . 30 truck fleet great no micromanaging so mb suck up and deal with thanx for advice just thinking my bad we not supposed to lmao

Little more clarity my fault just stupid not thinking we run dry van no reefer in sight -
A 30 truck fleet should NEVER have trucks sitting. Sounds like dispatch, or who ever is in chatge of finding loads, doesnt know what they are doing.
I very very rarely sit... I usually know what my next load is a day before I deliver my current load. We have 70 trucks in our fleet and 2 dispatchers for over the road drivers. One dispatcher does loads going from Rockies to Mid West, second dispatcher does loads going from Mid West to the Rockies. All drivers deal with both dispatchers. Zero BS, zero micro managing... Dispatch tells me where load is going and whenbit needs to be there.... I choose my route, I chose where I fuel, I choose where I stop and when.
I would be looking for a new company if I was you.Zues Thanks this. -
