    Not really sure where you went to school, but that’s 2.21 per mile times .72. That comes out to 1.59 to the truck. He never said that 4200 was ttt. If you think that’s a great rate, have at it and have fun.

    Yea I hate to pop your balloon, but it's nearer 2,000 miles, I was being generous, and no matter how you slice it, that's $2.10 mile. Dunno what Slime takes out of that, but I'm sure the reefer needs fuel, and I have a feeling there's a couple bucks in tolls involved.

    I'm certain he'll average 8+ on the hills in The Appalachian's as well.

    The guy in question receives 72% of the true rate.

    To determine 72% you multiply by 0.72

    To determine true rate from a known 72% figure you divide by 0.72

    Yeah....I got $2.21.... not sure what the .72 is, but if that's Landstars cut, that takes it to $1.59.

    How do you know 4200 isn't the true rate? So he's getting $3,024

    All he needs to do is post one of those BIG money settlements, and we'll all shut up.

    Yeah, I don't own any balloons.
    Take your loss. You didn't think your argument through before you posted now you're trying to save face by moving the goal posts of your argument.
