    You might just take a shot at early delivery....werked fer me. I called a receiver and left a message that I could deliver early if it would fit into their schedule. No response, no call back! Sooooo, I mosied on down to Daytona Beach and parked my happy butt and rig in their customer parking lot. Spent the night there and next morning bright and early I went into the store and kindly asked the manager if he'd take me early. Maybe the rig taking up parking spots for customers helped him decide but, long story short, about 1.5 hrs later I sent in an "empty" call.

    It's as advertised, .25 cpm over 299 miles. Under 299 is on a slider scale with bonus pay for local short hauls. I'm not unhappy with it as I'm getting what's advertised. All scale tickets and tolls have been reimbursed on the paycheck with no problems.
