    I dont understand. ...I/c are getting good miles but company drivers say that they are not. ..is it because they are dispatched out of two different terminals

    IC have a completely different dispatch and DBL. They will do everything they can to keep an IC rolling.

    IC gets premium dispatching, or so I've heard. It seems like from what night has been saying that he is averaging 2600+ miles. Most drivers I talk to just don't see those miles consistently, myself included. I'm not sure what it is or what can be done but sometimes you get somewhere and you sit for a day or three. I'm sitting right now with no load and I have a solid 40 hours left on my 70...1400 miles for the week so far and it's thursday, hopefuly something will drop in and I'll get above that 2000 mile point.

    I'm company, believe me if I was IC and seeing these numbers I would have walked loooooooooooong ago. Which is probably why they get the premium miles lol.
