    ODFL pays practical miles - all miles loaded or empty and bobtail if you ever have to (rarely).

    Practical miles are within 1-2% of the speedometer miles, which is probably off anyways.

    HHG miles is a rip. IMO.

    Most pay for all DISPATCHED miles, so, obviously, you don't get paid for bobtailing to the store/bar etc, right ? You're emptying in Dallas, get dispatched to Waco for a pick-up then deliver to Baton Rouge. All paid miles, Dallas-Waco-Baton Rouge. Which is figured on companies computer plan and is short about 7% from actual miles.

    Are you talking dispatch miles? Or miles that you do for personal reason? Most megas pay all dispatch miles, and rarely do they allow line 5.
