Why I do not like to move around much..unloaded the other night in berea, ky ..deadheaded up to Lexington 55 miles to be in a hopefully better triangulated area..got a load last night...yup, you guessed it..picking up in berea where I dropped off at the previous night. So I added 110 miles to my all miles, reducing my all mile pay of a current $1.06..this isn't for everyone, we all are our own businessman. But it works good for me.

Is that the polite way of saying it's a crapshoot? *lol*
20% DH is a common figure bantered about....
20% is kinda high, we are at 8% YTD.
I would attribute part of that to the number of available st loads compared to van loads. As long as it pays x per mile all miles dh or loaded matters not to me.

i agree, there is no DH that figure would be extra miles that we drive unpaid.

I get a kick out of people that walk up to me and ask " how many miles ya get?"... they sometimes appear dumbfounded when I tell them its not about the miles, its about the pay. I ask them would they rather drive 500 miles for a thousand bucks, or a thousand miles for a thousand bucks? Work smarter, not harder. But this kind of thinking doesn't mean to try and rape dispatch for the highest rate, either.I just trust them on that one. Yes, I ask what the total pay is and divide that into the total miles, and it usually is more than my set goal rate pay for all miles.but I do bend on a lower rate, especially if is a small and light load. That less pay can be made up in ways of less gas used to move that tiny load.

Good for you..I still remember the winter that the pipes froze when the pilot light went out on the furnace when we were on the road..oh what a mess that was!
Chillin in S.C. surprised on how slow it is??? End of the month...Maybe it'll break loose tomorrow???
As far as the address thingy....not to hard to figure out, really, if it all doesnt show up, imo...
I'm too cheap to buy the vowels....
I hope I don't get a load until Monday!! I'm sure dispatch can dooooo it.... really. No Load until Monday.
