    I’m in the same boat, just found the email but it doesn’t have the quarterly or annual numbers (but does have the current week’s miles). FWIW the statement recap you get from the macro does have quarterly and annual miles (but not the current week’s miles).

    Because on average you get more miles in OTR because you are not home every weekend. You a running miles those days. Wheels not rolling no money

    Depends on if your foots constantly on the pedal or if you're on cruise. Been about 8.5mpg even with 37,500lbs and mostly using cruise.

    I drove a 2019 Mack for a while. The interior lay out is not that great and even at 5'11" you have to train yourself as to where it is ok to stick your head. And if you are in a hurry, you will probably bump your head on something.

    i feel out of place at this shipper. At Norwesco in St. Bonifacius, MN and they seem to make large plastic tanks. I seem to be the only dry van here. The three trucks i can see in front of me are either flatbeds or stepdecks

    3 of us unloaded this morning in Riverside (pretty typical).

    Stepped out of the norm today. Reloaded with rail car wheels in Long Beach headed for Slaton TX. Delivers on Wednesday.

    I put in my hometime for the month, and got it approved. I’ll be home Monday the 23rd until the following Monday. After this month we are going to reel hometime into something more manageable than the 7 days I’ve been taking. I highly appreciate FCC for not batting an eye at my requests. But holidays will be over soon and time to pull the belts tight.

    When I did LTL in MN, one of our customers had us do regular movements for them of large tanks in dry van. They were so large that there were normally 4 to 5 of them in the trailer on their side. All of 5,000 pounds to move. The small deer stands are usually fun too.

    Must be the luck of the draw or gearing difference I use cruise control all the time and never get that high and I have tried going 60 to see if I could get higher.
