    This thread is over a year old and if not replied to it should be put to rest.

    Previous statement still stands. It's went up by a cent or two. But I'm not sure the precise details. I'm on a local flat fleet now.

    I know for a fact it’s at least 100 times that much. I’m sure it’s at least 25 cents per mile. 0.25 cents per mile is less than a penny per mile. Nobody will drive for that amount.

    It's funny how few people catch that common mistake.

    Nope .25 would be 25 cents in Decimal form..
    Now .0025 would be 1/4 of a penny in decimal form....

    Now maybe in common core math 0.25 might mean 1/4 of a penny

    When expressed in cents, .25 cents is 1/4 cent.
    $0,25 would be 25 cents.

    Nope. That would be .25 dollar per mile to get 25 cpm.

    25 cpm = 25 cpm
    .25 cpm =.25 cpm

    Yes, but the reply was for 0.25 cents (1/4 of a cent)
    It can be written correctly as "0.25" or "25 cents" to men 1/4 of a dollar. Writing it as 0.25 cents means 1/4 of a penny.
