Can we see a copy of those settlements?
-
Sure. I just don't know how to arrange it because I look at them online and don't really think it would be too bright to give my sign on info away.

Sleeping bear where you went wrong in your calculations is you based them on 6 mpg and I get pretty close to 8 mpg plus I don't pay $3.85 a gallon for fuel. Also I pay about $130 a week for insurance.

Not saying your wrong bro, but I believe our company pays fsc on deadhead miles. Its like 84 cpm + fsc for dead head. Its what my trainer told me. He's an o/o with our companyClick to expand... -
Gotcha Bro...I had never heard of a FSC on deadhead miles but i see your deadhead pay is mostly in line of what most get deadhead.. Just that hes getting unbelievable amount to dead head that im sure shocked alot of us owner operators. If i got what he got to deadhead to pick up produce i would be a happy camper but i go thru brokers cause im not leased to a company but i do get a fuel surcharge when i pick up a load.. Thanks Bro for that headsup...
DrtyDiesel Thanks this. -
Yes that is from our website but I still made $1.38 + .42 fsc loaded and $1.30 + fsc of .42 on empty miles last week. I will make more than that this week but I won't know the exact numbers til I see my settlement.TheRoadWarrior said: ↑Gotcha Bro...I had never heard of a FSC on deadhead miles but i see your deadhead pay is mostly in line of what most get deadhead..
