[QUOTE="bigdad7, post: 12367607, member: 44185"]As an oo or company guy ? One of the greatest benefits to running with a reefer in consistency. Rates for food don't allways dip as much in a soft market because everyone still eats. Rates stay relatively hire and reefer drivers keep moving. There is some drop and hook usually at shippers . Longer unload times are common , A lot of apus are louder then newer reefer imo . Ambient temp and reefer settings will affect fueling times on a reefer . Most times my guys just fill them when they fill truck. Once you learn this segment I allways recommend working for a fair % the money can be very lucrative.[/QUOTE]
