We were talking about miles last week and I posted that I had transfloed in 2,800 and some change. I just looked, it was 2,815.

This week I’m transfloeing in 3,425. That consists of: Clovis to Lamar, Co. (live loaded) Lamar to Santa Fe Springs, CA. (live unloaded) Dead headed from there to Sunnyside, WA tank wash (dropped/hooked) Then to Prosser, WA. (live loaded) Then Prosser to Henderson, Nevada.

3,425 + 2,815 = 6,240 miles.
6,240 divided by 2 weeks = 3,120.

Just an example of how I come to my numbers when I say I “average” 3K miles per week. It’s pretty much this way every month other than when I take home time.

Give it another 9 years. You’ll meet drivers of other companies at tank washes and customers that brag about getting $10 an hour detention time but in the same sentence mention they get paid .38 cents a mile.

 

I’ve heard lower than .38. before too. Lol
