Big D, you know I know nothing basically and am just trying to figure things out. So with that said, I have been wondering what type of miles and revenue I should be producing for the year.

A quick question, really 2 of them. Is the 104,317 miles all the miles on the truck including say a trip to the shop when you are home? I mean is that every single mile on the truck?

Also if I'm not mistaken, you have 2 trucks. Were both trucks at about the same rate/ mileage?

Thanks
Miles are IFTA reported and have not got the numbers back on my other truck. But I can tell you that the W2 for the driver reported $ 54,271 for 2007.

Sorry Big D, but could you clarify IFTA reported? I mean at the beginning I wasn't reporting personal miles then I was told that I wasn't supposed to do that. More miles equals better MPG

Miles reported for IFTA... Personal miles i.e. shop etc.... were under 250. My miles are revenue only...

Thanks BigD. I can see mine are more than 250, but it's not like I'm galavanting but taking truck to shop etc seems to add up. But month by month I am learning how to make this more efficient.

Thanks again.
