Popular Post RowdyRebel Posted October 18, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2016 P/U @ 4946 Del @ 4680 on the same street Odometer @ pickup = 64082.2 Odometer @ delivery = 64082.7 I think that's a new record for me. Anything shorter has always been intra-plant. This was a shipment to an outside company. Hell, they could've saved the truck freight charges and just made the delivery with their forklifts. Oh well...I guess if they'd done that, I wouldn't have had anything to do today. 7 Quote When approaching a 4-way stop, the vehicle with the biggest tires has the right of way!

RowdyRebel Posted October 19, 2016 Author Share Posted October 19, 2016 My previous best was $7.70/loaded mile. That one was a 6.5 mile haul from the rock quarry, across the river to the state highway they were widening. Do that 14-15 times, throw $100 worth of fuel in the tanks, and be home 8-9 hours after I left. Sure do miss jobs like that...pay great and close to home. I guess I'll find out what my new personal best is in a couple weeks when I get paid for it. Quote When approaching a 4-way stop, the vehicle with the biggest tires has the right of way!

BillyT Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 The top seniority driver at OK Grocery the transportation Division of Giant Eagle Markets,in 1987, made over 70000 a yr company driver not o/o! Never went more than 20 miles! A top seniority car hauler that same year could earn 90000dollars a yr gross! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
