    depends on what the rate was to begin with. 67% of 3.50 a mile is better than 80% of 2.00 a mile....gotta find out what kind of rates you'll end up with at that percentage.

    If the average load pays $2.00 per mile then you have a starting point to figure out your revenue.

    Really need to know the REAL RATE , some places do it as 67% of 75% as the other 25% covers overhead , sales ecte.

    That is when problems happen you hear that the freight was $2.35 / mile but your 67% is not $1.57 its $1.18 / mile and you think you are being cheated.
