Leo The team would get .25% for each category they hit. They hit 3 of the 4 so they would get .75% once they hit $14,000.00 and .75% for every $5000.00 they make to the truck. So if they made $25,000.00 the could make an extra 3% each, but since they only hit 3 of the 4 categorys they...

Our one driver has a Garman and he told me that this one has the routing for trucks. Its a newer Garman, so you may want to check that out. I'm not 100% sure, but its worth checking into.

What seems to work for us is we pay our drivers and the Fleet I manage 20% each minus the FSC and paid tolls. The drivers pays their own workmans comp. We pay the fuel, tolls and everything else. You can give the drivers a bonus based on what they gross in the truck. Here is what you can do...

It depends on many differnt things. 1. Who your leased on with. 2. Depend on your age if you go with disabilty insurace. 3. Do you want pay 21.50% of your income to workmans comp, its really high in Ohio. If your leased on with Fedex Custom Critical and got hurt. After your off work...

Yes there are some very good owners out here. The owner I manage his fleet wants his drivers to have the best and so does me and my wife. But He doesn't know alot about this business but he did name his company a very good name. at the time he filed the paper's with the state of Ohio I thought...

Yea I thought some would try to have a field day with this post. But it had to be said. Honestly we don't even ask our drivers to pay for fuel or tolls. We have always paid for the fuel. The only thing our drivers or the drivers of the fleet I manage pays for is their workman comp. In return...

Cheril your very right. We have a team the has been with us for 3 years now and they take very good care of the truck they are in. They get all the extra perks like paid hotels when they are running hard, bonus's each month, vacation settlements every six months. But they earn it. This team just...

I had a driver call me and wanted 65% of the gross to the truck plus he wanted 100% of the FSC and wanted the owner to pay his workman comp, and one hotel every week. I was like your not asking for much are you. I told him we don't pay like that. I thought it was funny.

More like the fuel too Dave lol. How you been Dave.

Nothing wrong with getting paid a fare wage. But some of these drivers want a new truck with everything on it and wants the owners to give them the world. All I'm saying is that owners are giving way to much to some drivers. If you want 60% thats fine, but it should be 60% across the board. Not...

We could get Dan May to come and sing at the Expo. He has a myspace page if you guys want to look him up. He is out of Philly. Great music even Lawrence likes him. Yea a lift gate Jam party sounds cool, our youngest son plays too Dave and is very good. Be safe out there. Nice writing Dale.

We don't pay our Teams like that Jim. And never would. You know what im talking about, you was an owner at one time wasn't you Jim? All I'm saying is some drivers want as much money as they can get from the owners. Why can't they start out at 50% plus 100% of the FSC and work their way upt to...

Drivers pay is way over board if your doing the 60/40 split. When I stated back in 1995 a team would get 50% of the truck and they paid fuel and the tolls. Yea fuel was 1.20 a gallon too but we didnt get a FSC either. So some owner's started paying teams 60% to help with the cost of fuel. Then...

I can understand removing a post. But to ban someone, their must have been a good reason. If Leo and Mrgoodtude don't get along and Leo is the one banning him then that is wrong. Never had a problem with either person and they are good people. Dreamer just don't ban someone for the hell of it...

Nice to see everyone so HAPPY. Hey Greg, send me a can of Tim Hortons Coffee lol. We don't have Tim Hortons in Northeast Ohio as of yet. I sure did miss the EO folks that I talked to on here.

I got this in an E-mail and I wanted to share this with everyone. (I sure would like to know who wrote this one! They deserve a HUGE pat on the back!) I DO HAVE TO PASS A URINE TEST FOR MY JOB....BUT I AGREE 100% Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I...

Hey Here is a good one. Driver looking for Truck. Hi, I'm okayed with " Any Trucking Company" and I'm looking for an owner that has a new 2008 Peterbilt DR unit with a Kichen, Bathroom (with shower), coffee maker, mircowave, Generator,New Dell laptop with cooling table so I can talk to my...

This Reason right here is why I never go to MATS anymore. Had a BETTER time at the Expedite Expo to be honest. I hope to be at the Expo this year because its better than MATS in my book and you dont have to pay $25.00 a night to park there.

Terry is right, that sounds like something Rent-A-Cent would do. Sorry I worked in the Rent to Own business before this. Their will be alot of good deals on trucks after MATS. So I would say no this is not the best deal.

Lawrence I was wanting to know if we can start the John O Friendly Drivers Award at the Expo this year. John was a very nice man and will be missed. I just thought we could carry on what John did. He was one of the nicest guys I met and the 1st person me and my wife met at the Expo in 2006...
