    Spent like $20 on food and coffee yesterday. Is that figured into the operating expense?

    And since Uncle Sam alots you $62? $67? a day is that $20 still an expense?

    Is the $67 incorporated into your rate per mile even though you are sitting like I am today?

    What about cat treats? A box of cat treats is $9. Cat treat cost for the last 2 weeks is $0.0013 a mile.

    You're a smart guy I'm sure you'll work it out in due course.

    In other words you have nothing. I gave you an example of my actual fuel cost. What's your's?

    Impossible. You are not only not making a living, you're losing $20K year.

    perhaps @Ridgeline or @Midwest Trucker may have some answer's for you, I know neither of those guys personally, however they both run fleets of varying size.

    12% of $1.60? Your fuel cost is $0.19 mile. Astonishing. Your trucks get 14 to 16 MPG. You are in the wrong business sir. The big manufactures will right you a check for billions to have your secrets.
