Flow Below Added

So to get back on subject on this load it was from MO with three drops in 1Drop in CT and 2 drops in NH. Load was around 9500LBS and drove 67-70. I averaged 9.6 MPG's on this load. Dead headed to NY and will hopefully find something worth while in the morning at a place I have been before. Dead headed through mountain area and ran back area and got 9.3MPG;s running 70 or speed limit. Now sitting at 9.5 MPG's for the trip.

Also note if anyone heading out this way the smoke the last few days has been pretty bad from the fires in Canada. Looks like it is foggy all day long air quality alerts as well.

 

What rate did you get for that if it's not a secret.

 

Sorry I do not give out rates on these kind of loads. To many people try and pick them already.

 

Ok, that's strange. By sharing the rate you don't reveal the lane. It changes nothing.

 

Just don't give out numbers on stuff unless it is a one off here and there.

 

I've been guilty of sharing some numbers on here on occasion but I've thought about it more and more over the last couple of years and I just don't do it anymore. If I do accidentally share some numbers it's just that, an accident. A wise business owner would never share numbers publicly, so I applaud you for that.

People get on here and brag about what they make (or don't) one moment and the next they're #####ing about being outdone by brokers and mad that so many people are jumping in to the industry and thus ruining it. Where do they think these people get their info?

Seems the right hand doesn't know what the left is doing.

 

To be fair, interstates are federal; not state.

I bet, your Alignment MD guy in KC will find something. Or, could just be a casing giving up, after “X” number of impacts.

 

Found a picture of my 03 T600 I didn't know I had with the new trailer and lift axle right after I picked it up from the install.

The pic at the bottom is fuel mileage in the 19 Cascadia from late September last year to the present that I've been driving it. That's running lots of 75 mph on cruise control the open highway and speed limits everywhere else. That digital is accurate to what the truck burns but it doesn't account for what the APU burns. So it's probably closer to 7.4 mpg because the truck never idles but that APU is almost always on when the truck's off except for hometime.

 

Yep I was gonna contact Chad when I get a load going back home. Will have him check it out and verify and to be honest I planned on doing it anyways regardless since I have had truck for over a year now.

 

Also this is why I hate the roads. interstates should all be done very similar and should be top of the line roads.
