they could eliminate more independant drivers but they could get local jobs and have a life. -
Let's make this easy... if you're on a per-mile contract the only way you can increase your profit is to run more miles, and hope that the fuel surcharge covers the fuel. We're on a percentage contract so there's two ways to increase you're profit: First, luck-out and draw a load with a higher rate, which happens quite a bit. The second way is to do a better job at controlling your costs, and the number one target is the fuel bill. Its the 800-pound gorilla on your profit/loss sheet, and some effort on this line item will do more for your bottom line than anything else. That's how you give yourself a pay raise in our world.Last edited: Aug 21, 2014

keeping all trucks at 65 is stupid especially with so many states raising their speed limits -

So you tell dispatch your going to be there earlier, and can they get you set up on a earlier preplan.
