Trucking in North America vs around the world

Can you convert that to us dollars and miles?

 

2,12$/mile (power only).
Toll roads on average take 0,2$/mile out of this.
8125 miles per month on average (and it's quite a lot, really).
1 us galon of diesel is 4,25$
Average fuel consumption, around 8.7 us mpg
Truck insurance per year around 2500$
Average truck price around 88000$.

Typical driver (it really depends on country) is making around 2700$/month

My head is killing me, you guys should really start using SI units and I hope I didn't screw anything ...

 

700 a week for driver pay ???

 

Yup, doesn't look that bad, if you consider that typical Walmart guy works here for 550$ a month.

My complete flat in one of Poland biggest cities. 450 square feet, with underground parking, bought brand new, fully made 76000$.

 

very cheap for city and new, sounds like good choice.

in my village (16km air distance from main square) we have 1600€/m2, they soldout 700 are now building another 500 apartments 31-85m2. average is about 55m2, without furniture of course.
in city they cost about 2500€/m2, bottom is 800 for communist ####ty early 60s apartment in skyscrapers made of concrete and metal sheet (4-5km from main square). highest you can find is 4000.

 

Those numbers arent that bad. 2$ a mile is my bottom number goal for all miles(loaded and empty). Tho i usually manage much better than 2/mile. My cheapest load this month was 1.86 a mile to get out of Florida which is a very bad location for flatbed freight. My best was 2.76 a mile. Most of my loads this month have been over 1k miles, which is high for me. I usually run 500 to 750 mile next day delivery loads

But I'm paying under 2.50/gallon for diesel. Lowest this month was 2.24 highest so far was 2.38.

My mpg has suffered bad this month. Averaging 5.5 mpg cause my generator stopped running on the first night out so I've had to use the truck engine for ac. And its been extremely hot so have only been able to shut it off a few nights. Normal fuel consumption varies between 6.8 to 7.3 on average. I need to take a day and figure out why it won't fire but I've been lazy and its been to bloody hot. Will wait till i get home and can pull it in the barn.

On tolls I've spent less than 15 $ all month. Just a short section of the kansas turn pike 2 different times.

 

Mostly single family houses around here ....2 acre minimum lot size by town regulation ......

Apartments in town are $1500 or so a month for like 1000 square feet 2-3 small bedrooms......
