They do not get on anyone that I know of for oor...but the reality of it is is it is their trucks, their money that they are spending, so they have a right to monitor it anyway they seem fit. Even on their worse days, they are not even close to micro managing in my opinion. The other option is to buy your own truck and then you will not have to answer to anyone!
I guess when I think about it, it's not micro management. It's akin to doing a $200 vibration analysis on a $100 nonessential motor. Just my beliefs and opinions. Maverick has theirs. Micromanagement would be on the level of using the information to harass the driver through intense observation and control. OOIDA is fighting that right now and is using that argument to help eliminate the EOBR and save the outlaws...I mean loose leaf wielding...I mean the more unfortunate independent driver that can't compete with the cheap freight the legal companies are snatching up (sarcasm intended).
My own truck may be an option some day, but doing it right now would be like inventing a glass cleaner and naming it Nu-Clear Windows. The idea of windows glowing on their own is intriguing, but the cancer rate is unacceptable.
Last week must've been better than I thought. 7.242 mpg 12.7 OOR Mpg went up and oor went down. Those longer hauls tend to do that.
I have no idea what peeps are doing to get less than 6 mpg in an 11 or 12. Running back and forth on I-64 through Virginia hammered down into a gale force wind? But, I here guys talking all the time about how "their" truck just can't do any better.
