.36/mi last I heard. Nice looking equipment - I guess the money's gotta go somewhere.

I'd look at DOT Foods if you want to do reefer. They start at $.47/mi. guaranteed first year. It appears that their runs are regional. I drive by their Cambridge City, IN terminal every day.

Thanks, ya I'm headed home in a few days to get my TA out of winter storage. I had to buy tires for it ($650 :shock: ) so I can get it inspected and the registration renewed. From what I hear New York has this thing now that if you don't have an inspection on file (that gets sent from the station at time of inspection) they won't let you renew the registration. Due to the tires and some environmental equipment let's just say I don't have an inspection on file 8) 8)

Do they still expect the driver to pay for the truck wash?

Do they still pay $1.50/load to scale out?

No, they don't expect you to pay for the truck wash. They also don't expect you to wash the truck. There are wash bays at all the terminals if a driver wants to wash their truck. However, in the summertime they do the "Match Game". If you check the temperature on the bills and it is different from the dispatch temp, you contact your fleet manager right away and they will give you a Tchek for $25 or send you a Tchek for the amount of the truck wash wherever you choose.

No, they recently changed it. They will send you a PO for the amount of the scale if you needed it. If you scale a 30,000 lb load don't expect to get a PO as the scale was unnecessary. With the air gages I don't usually scale anything under 42,000 unless I really think the bills are off. If I'm full of fuel I just run the gage on my tractor close to my 34,000 lb mark and call it good. Anytime I've scaled to double check myself no further action was needed and I wasted time and money on a scale. 8) 8)
