    Runs that are on % of loads

    I think you get 62% because that is what your contract calls for. I don't know what a freight truck is, but a ranger driver starting in the last 4-5 years gets 67% of 98% of the linehaul. This can be increased by approx. 7 % if you pull your own trailer. I left ranger 3 yrs ago and came to...

    Stop Smoking Now!!!

    I've been home for a month now watching my wife die a slow painful death from lung cancer. It was her choice to smoke, so yes, her fault.
