Also, how would you be ontime for your deliveries and pickups? 11hrs driving, only 55 miles per day.
-
Me? I'm not a company guy. No worries here.
-
If prime gives me a shot and they decide to enforce that 5mph, i will definately be looking for another company, swift here i come.
Or for that matter C.R. England.
-
I don't think we'll go any lower. It's all about fuel economy... thousands of small trucking companies went out of biz during the recession because the fuel bill bankrupted them.
-
yeah, i know too heavy on the fuel peddle. i know they want good fuel economy, but sheeesh, 5miles an hr.

but seriously the optimum speed is 55 to 62mph right? -
Yeap, But if you can get over 8 mpg, I dont think they will say anything. I know when I run mty I will run faster as long as I am getting those higher MPG.
-
I only run fast when I have to... otherwise its just fast enough to get where I'm going with enough cushion in case something happens. Don't want to be late!
-
nothin is too slow for prime.
-
Especially not your truck!
