Prime miles

When I was at Heartland back in 2001, my average for the nine months I endured there was 1725 per week. Pitiful.

 

Those are company driver miles not lease op figures

 

So how is it going did you go to prime I'm thinking of doing the same I miss the road been out of the otr game since 2012

 

Please someone tell me who butt to kiss at Prime to get all these miles all of you are claiming to get. I have been here a year and have never been late on a load, I am most of the time in top fuel MPG but not getting miles. Most my checks are 1,000 or less and I have only gone home 4 times in a year. If I had the miles I would be banking and very happy but I don't get them. I am just now at 80,000 miles for the year and started my lease December 3rd 2015.

 

Now this is the more typical Prime story I hear in the trenches.
See here is your problem. You go home four times a year. To make money on the lease purchase of many of the big companies you'll have to cut that to one!

 

When I got home it's pulling in one morning and leaving the next night, not much more then a 34 hr reset.

Not sure how going home 12 days in a year impactstarted the amount of miles I get.

 

Plenty of people on here say run less miles at a higher rate

Do you know what your operating costs are ?

Do you have a good relationship with your FM ?

Does your FM know your operating costs ?

Your FM is your business partner, have you considered working with another FM ?

 

You're a lease op so you shouldn't be looking at miles, is all about high revenue low miles. That's the mentality of a company driver not a business owner. What's your gross revenue so far for the year so far?
