    I couldn't figure out the 16 payments left on 28K. I think that had everyone going. Must have a ballon payment at the end.

    Another driver that has been empty longer, expanded his deadhead parameters. This happens a lot out in Elpaso, as everywhere west of the NM. line is considered western section. Any driver in the western section once unloaded keeps his empty time as long as he stays in the western section. If he picks up in LA and takes a load to Phonix. He would go off the board while loaded, but goes back on the board with his previous time once unloaded. Mecer sit it up for the western section, years ago to encourage guys to go to Calif. They used to have the same thing for Tex. but dropped that.

    hey, i know you think we are ragging you out but thats not what were doing. i myself am telling you about a different way of working this system, what worked at other places wont work here.

    its has worked very well for me since i came here, just give it some thought.

    also, i am not that busy, 1800 to 2 000 miles a week, and a 4000 dollar revenue avg per week. i look for the most revenue on the least amount of miles.
