Just bought my own truck, should be built by December.
I'm wondering if anyone here pulls Prime Inc's trailers in their "Power Only" or "Logistics" fleet.
Are you making good revenue? Whats your average (your numbers, not theirs) per mile (loaded + deadhead divided by revenue)
Also, any suggestions on where I should go? My goal is absolute highest revenue. I don't care where I drive or for how long I'm out as home time is basically 2 holidays a year.
Basically, I want to see some bragging posts about where you are at and the ridiculous amount of money ya'll makin.
Prime Inc Power Only experience? Where to go?

Highly doubtful if Prime is over 1.40 a mile, all inVampire, GreenPete359, p608 and 4 others Thank this. -
I'm fully aware of my expenses, 1.40 would still be profitable but I know there are guys out here making much more than that.
I don't have a network of customers yet, therefore I need a good broker.
I also want a broker with some decent contract rates.
Nobody advertises their rates for obvious reasons, therefore I need to ask people who are actually running for a broker to get an idea of who is most competitive right now. -
Came across a O/O recently running an older Volvo with his own numbers
Been contracted with Prime for years at 80% running Prime trailers
When he gets in an area where Prime is light on freight he uses their trailer and grabs a load from external brokers
He was very happy and has been for years with Prime
Makes his cash for the year then goes home to Columbia South America for a couple of months
He was a very interesting man to chat withjsnell, NoBigHurry, nax and 1 other person Thank this. -
There's a thread on here. He can't make it with $1.75.. How do you expect to survive on $1.40 with a brand new truck????
$2 seems to be the bare minimum everyone wants. And most of them own their own trucks. Some of them are last century.12 ga, Maj. Jackhole and ladr Thank this. -
