    Update !!! Fueling

    Trimac has a great fuel program . You get a fuel book like most carriers for the best fuel stops but they have a website you can got to and look at the following

    1. Any fuel stops Trimac Price ( for IC's)
    2. Bulk fuel Prices at terminal

    Today I bought fuel at Flying J in Orange TX

    Pump price 3.97
    My price 3.51
    Net savings 0.46

    Current FSG loaded and empty 0.48
    At 7.3 mpg on this trip do the math I bought fuel for roughly
    0.5 cpg

    I love this feature at trimac

    Well Kentucky24. I was offered the position pending the outcome of the agility test and drug screen and physical. I hope it is the right decision for me. I guess they are bringing on a new account and expect to be busy. Thanks for your help.

    I looked on another forum and the guys are saying dry bulk is alot of work and doesn't really pay. Can anyone give me more insight before i make a bad decision. Theses all are dedicated runs.
    Thanks

    yeah, cement, fly ash etc.... will be other stuff down the road that is why he wanted to make sure I had hazmat and tanker. They also wanted a copy of my TWIC card and that was the first time I touched that thing in three years.
