How many miles from a team can I expect to get? FedEx CC

[Bruno]

Jimby,nobody gonna believe we can haul a load paying $2.40 all miles. Remember,we're supposed to be the low rate carrier.

Remember it's not what you make, It's what you keep. That is a John Elliott saying.

Its not ALL about miles, Its also about positioning and what the load pays and the amount of empty miles to get it.

FXCC dispatches on all miles from delivery to pickup to delivery. The dispatch includes the miles to or from each of these locations, the pay per mile, and the FSC per mile all nicely broken out. Learning to use this information and to drive as few of miles as possible on our dime while still staying positioned for the next load is they key.

Each different type of truck has to learn how to best position themselves as a dry box and a reefer do not have the same freight zones. As a dry box and DoD qualified we do very well staying west of the Mississippi which is the area we prefer.

We have learned the freight zones and how to make them work for us.
