    Default O/Ops with LTL companies

    Do LTL companies offer o/op oppurtunites ? Is such work sufficiently remunerative ?

    I did LTL for a while.

    It can be good, better fuel mileage, consistent home time/pay.

    How do you get better mileage pulling a set? My understanding is that a set of doubles is inferior to a 53' Van form a rolling resistance & drag perspective.

    I don't know, why you are calling it LTL?
    They work for LTL company, but actually doing TL job, so is the pay!
