Yeah, I finally went over my statements and it isn't good. I was expecting $5k or so to be coming any time now, but actually, I'm about even. I got a $98 check last week, first money I've seen in 3 weeks.
At today's fuel prices, with every load grossing over 78,000 lbs, would you expect anyone to run profitably at $1.50/practical mile loaded and empty?
Various people have told me how well they do in tankers, not just on this board- quite a few people.
1) In a general sense, would you expect anyone to do well with those weights and that rate? What are some guys staying in this business on 70-80 cpm after their fuel costs?
2) Calling all the tanker dudes, Mike, Cyanide, Paul, OTG..., if anyone has some really practical job switching advice c'mon and bring it? Are there still good jobs out there? Paul, how did Dana work out? You there? Cyanide, your place still hiring.
I've got to do mucho miles today so I can't check back much. Your replies appreciated, TIA
