Usualy when I accept a load the miles arent correct, its normaly off by 20 - 50 miles according to my gps software ( then odometer ) when I reach consignee. I realize companies use pcmiller and other software to figure mileage But how many miles should you allow to go over actual mileage before...

What kills me are the Canadian loads. I call the broker to confirm they got the fax. Usually a short call, sometimes only 2 minutes, but it's $.49 a minute to call Canada.
