Figured I'd share a table I use...
For goal to clear $3,000 after costs working a full week each day I'd have to run on average at one of these rates:
300 miles at $2.30
350 miles at $2
400 miles at $1.80
450 miles at $1.65
500 miles at $1.50
550 miles at $1.40
600 miles at $1.30
For me knowing this helps in booking running over my opinions when choosing what to do.

Bbye Galaxy note 5.
It would be nice if they made $700 phones more durable.
Got beached out from Schneider not doing a three way call today. Oh well -
Those numbers are for a 7 day weekflatbedder4life Thanks this. -
How do you work 7 days run 600 miles average and only work 8.75 hrs a day to never run out of hours?
I need you as a mentor! I can't stretch hours like that. -
You know my operation is based on shorter loads.
I was just pointing out that 600 miles at $1.30 is about the same as 350 miles at $2 after fuel.
I try to make the most money on the shortest amount of miles but it doesn't always work out that way, especially on weekends.
By making my money on shorter loads I keep more of my on duty hours to where I never have to worry about running out of hours. My 14 though is a different story. -
Ok I thought you said your formula was to run the way you posted, thanks for clarifying because I was wondering what I'm doing wrong....lol

Those are just guidelines I follow and aim for.
600 miles at $1.30 is last resort but even so if I have a day like that it's okay if need be.
Normally I do 300-450 miles a day over two loads. 300 mile days are more so Northeast which I rarely go to anymore.flatbedder4life Thanks this.
