    Good afternoon. I wanted to know if the line haul pay shown in the "Driver Hub" app is the 68%, or do you have to do the math and subtract from what's shown?
    What is the average cpm breakdown on 400-600 mi loads that your seeing on the load board, not including your dead head?
    I'm asking because they've sent me the YouTube video, and the Peachtree City, GA to McGregor, TX load in the video shows a line haul of $1,097... So 68% would be $746, which is $.88cpm. Granted it's a 846mi load, which may pay a bit less, but is this actually the case with the line haul amount displayed in the app? and what 400-600mi loads average in actual line haul pay?

    It fluctuates a lot to be honest ..
    I have been in the 1.40 to 1.50 range including deadhead ....the rate in dh is the whole rate so multiply by .68 and add back in fsc ....I don,t think they want us discussing specific load rates but I have not gone into tx yet for under 2.20 yet I did pull out of Houston to philly for 3200 and have two loads stacked on me to get to ky

    First three weeks in total revenue 10897 on 8100 miles so right at 1.34 a mile that's all empty and loaded miles
    ...I am still getting a feel for how thier network flows so I hope I can improve on that a bit
