Since asking questions on the big boards already existing seems pointless, I'll ask here. We're looking to find out whether or not Maverick pays practical miles or not. Thanks.

They pay whether you are loaded or unloaded . . . or so I was told. I don't know what "practical miles" are but I hope that helps.

That is a route that is practical for a truck to take from zip code to zip code. Most companies pay milage based on PC Miler Program. Short miles(rip off) is the shortest most nonpractical truck route(cheats drivers). Practical miles is the most direct acceptable truck route.

Hope that answers your question.

As for Mavrick, check the web site, it may say.

I'm not really sure myself...and I'm driving for them!..LOL. I do know that my out of route is 6-8%. This is where it would show up and some of that 6-8% is my fault. Whatever program their using seems to be decent. I've already one run that actually paid quite a few more miles than it actually took. I'm sure this is a VERY rare occasion, but it did happen.

Good Luck, Arky
