Leasing at Prime

Thank you, that helps clarify things a bit. I was really looking for what you were able to set aside after expenses, and with paying your own salary, so I am feeling a bit more optimistic about the whole thing.

And forget the Pete's. I want a Coronado or a LoneStar.

 

I was teasing, really. I mostly just like the sleeper setups. The outer styling is irrelevant to me. I'm happy with a Cascadia condo.

 

Iron Pony you are my mentor. Didn't know that did ya. Put your handle on my app. for the referelllllll. You deserve it, Just got the keys to 14 cascadia. Can we exchange text? Make sure you get your taste.

 

do prime lease operators get to see the shipper/ broker contracts so there is no question that they are getting there full percent (70% ? )
when the contracted loads are broken down dollars per mile what is the average price being negotiated by prime?
produce vs meat vs dry goods ect.
do the lease operators get to use the prime load board to chose the own loads?
this prime thread is very intriguing I am currently trying to decide to run under my own authority but after browsing this thread I might just bobtail it down to Missouri and have prime "show me"

 

I don't quite understand the driver rating being associated to the dollars per mile on the loads or the different dispatcher boards .
correct me if I am wrong . I would assume prime negotiates a load with lets say kraft to pick up in iowa city going to Newark for $2700
. prime shows u the agreement between prime and shipper (kraft) and then shows u your %72 ($1944)
then weather they show you the miles or not your going to need to know them any way for the purpose of trip planning
so lets say iowa city to Newark is 900 miles now you know the load is worth $ 3.00
I would believe all the negotiations between prime and shipper are completed before it gets to a dispatch board. so are you saying that the rate of the load is changed depending on the rating of the driver or the board the load is on?
I hope I am not getting to personal but would you object to telling me what do you think your average cost per mile is to run( ball park figure) I know every load is different depending on tolls reefer fuel washout ect

 

I appreciate the baseline operating statement. Q: does that include the $0.045 /mile charge that Success Leasing tacks on?
