    Dedicated Parcel Route

    Hi Marmon, Let me guess...you like Marmon trucks ;-) I think .62 CPM is on the low side, but if you are home every night and it's ALL miles - it may a good deal. Most vans average anywhere from .50 to .70 CPM for all miles. Best of luck! Lawrence Expediters Online.Com
