    This is all the loads in a 500 mile radius where I sit now, total $23727.52 15759 miles at $1.51 per mile. Then you still have figure dead head

    I'll be expecting 2500 to 3500 miles a week, I have a regular old flat, don't mind tarping and where I am now my all miles avg since January has been about 1.75, that's including running canada. I don't much care for canada, I think I could stay stateside for a avg of 1.75

    So your low end would be $4375/week, correct? Is that's what you need every week or what you want?

    Umm I haven't been looking at it that way so far, they way I've been running I'll have a 3k week, a 7k week a 4k week and then nothing for 10 days while I'm home, I'd say 4400 would be my low end consistently since I'm looking to be more profitable with a move to mercer

    I'm looking to hopefully come to mercer, make more per mile and run a few less miles, most of my weeks are 3500+ right now, and now that I'm out of the mindset of hey ting paid per mile, I'm frustrated running that many, if that makes sense

    I don't want to fuel the fire not even being with Mercer but Spyder and the rest have clearly stated the rates are down, you must have missed the several posts...

    I would say you will do better than $3,500/week.

    My fault I wasn't clear, when I'm on the road my miles are 3500+, my settlements are more than that, if I'm running 3500 I at least expect to gross 6500, I know rates are down for everyone and everything, but at least fuel is down compared to last year as well,
