And most drivers will just park on the fuel island for 30 minutes anyway and log it as 'off duty'

10-4 I agree.

It takes a lot to REALLY **** me off but this comment about why a few think Husband and wife teams not making 'professional/safe drivers!! I'll tell you something I'll take my and my wife's safety record with ANY two guy team It was a two guy team that just had the terrible crash, not H/W team.

I understand Phil. Keep it up. In keeping with what the original poster has started, any comments should be on topic.

Gary, Sent you a PM but says that your mailbox is full.

I bet we are. Like I've said in other posts We are not getting any long runs. This week we started with a 294 d/h for a 218 mile run. Deadheaded back 218 d/h for a 383 mile run Preassigned for a 385 run with hardly no D/H This for a ER TEAM truck.

I agree, what is the numbers? I hope that you realize that you will be living with that number....for YEARS to come.

I was 'singing the 'Extra Lease Refer Trailer' Blues' from when I first talked with the guy charge (Dan or Don) years ago. A couple of months ago I posted that our revenue was down, our runs were short. While our millage rate is up slightly from last year, our gross is still down. I just...

I'm still with the company and got one. I guess they heard that I was shopping around? :eek:

That's what I predicted when they 'tried' the first Extra Lease Refer Trailers. What we're seeing is a very much of a decline the our average run miles. Very Very rare are we seeing anything over 1,000 miles. If we are even offered one we never get it. RARE that we are seeing anything over 500...

"Prince Phil of Expedite" :D

:confused:

Phil, "A TEAM" and all I just want to make something clear, I'm not very good at making all those 'quote' things apear. Those blue boxes that you put in your last post that state 'Originally Posted by NTHEWIND' are NOT MY QUOTES! Those are YOURS that I cut and pasted from something you had posted.

A-Team remember posting this? Re: Vehicle Activity Quote: Originally Posted by NTHEWIND View Post That's when I started looking at our Stats and Activity. Time after time we're offered good loads and just not getting them. After a while you just got to start questioning WTF is going...

I'm not a regular poster or even a regular visiter, but from time to time I log on to read what's going on. I find this post very interesting because I predicted when the company put on the first Extra Lease Refer Trailers, what was going to happen and it looks like I'm correct. (there are...

We just got a letter from Carl Kiser telling us that Refer D-time will be reduced on both T-Val loads that use to pay around the clock and regular temp loads that use to pay 16 hours. They will both only pay 10 hours from 8:00 to 23:59. The reason, simply put, is to put us the same as other...

We took a c-load from Louisville to Ft. Worth area. Sometimes I think the rates are better on a c loads coming out of the same shipper than the trailer loads. ?? Everything they offered us yesterday came out of Memphis. I ended up taking one this morning that loads today. More deadhead miles...

What brought this on was we were offered a run yesterday loading 116 miles away going 1063 miles, Refer E load. We did not get it. I simply do not believe they had a 'closer' truck???? That's when I started looking at our Stats and Activity. Time after time we're offered good loads and just...

I guess the color change reflects what we can expect in the future. RUNNING IN THE RED!:mad:

I just did a Vehicle Activity since the beginning of the year. What I found out was not surprising but confirms what I thought. (Gee the wonders of these computer things) We have done 15 runs so far this year. Only 4 have been over 500 miles. 1,226, 790, 902, 688. The rest are in the 200-400...
