How do I stop running empty?

oh, i get it just fine. so predict away.

 

This bring up a question I have been on the look-out for the answer too around here. I see lots of talk about “$$s per mile” , but it seems “$$ per Lb/mile” would be better.

I’m a pre-school-student of truck driving and think that knowing the ‘Pound, elevation change, and travel/transfer conditions’ of every load would be as important as the ’next’ load location. Hauling max loads up hills that you have to finger-print must keep operating costs at max $s per mile.

Also how do O/O see labor pay? Is it after all costs it’s what’s left over seen as the pay rate? OR is X amount of labor figured into each mile and any left over money seen as profit/bonus money?

Like I said I’m here doing research for Pre-schoolers-school. J If I sound like an outsider, it’s because I am. I have done ‘searches’ here for these question, but have found nothing, maybe I’m using the wrong key-words. If you know a thread here, please point me in that direction. THANKS for reading this.
